Change Font Size

[thoford75]

Hi guys. If I echo a string. I.e

 <small><i>complete by <?PHP echo $deadline;  ?></i></small>

Is there a way I can take $deadline and make the last 2 characters increase in font size?

Get the string length and then echo each character individually..

<?php
$length = strlen($deadline);
$last = $deadline[$length-2];
$slast = $deadline[$length-1];
$length -= 2;
for ($i = 1; $i <= $length; $i++) {
    if($limiter <= $length) {
    echo $deadline[$limiter];
    $limiter += 1;
    }    
}
echo '<small style="size: 2px">' . $last . $slast . '</small>';
?>

That should fetch the length of $deadline and then echo each character individually and set the last 2 to a smaller size, change the "size: yypx" to whatever you want..

Hope that helps

That's a waste. Use a substr to pull off what you need:

$sText = 'this is text';
$sMostText = substr($sText, 0, -2);
$sLastTwo = substr($sText, -2); 

Format $sMostText and $sLastTwo as you see fit and concat.
