Changing user font style on line

[rjw43]

I'm trying to find out if there is a simple script or program out there that can change the font style dynamically on the web by the user. We manufacture products where there is an option of several different fonts and would like the ability to let the customer preview their text on line immediately. We have seen other sites doing this in both .asp and java. Any help in the matter would be appreciated. We would need the fonts installed on our server as they are not common. The user must be able to enter their own text and preview it on line.

Hi,
I think you need Javascript perhaps, but anyways if it has something to do with server side programming then JSP would be an option.I think our Java forum experts will be able to shed more light on this.

Do you have any code which you've written so far?

Will you be able to post the links to those sites which you've mentioned above?

P.S: Try posting in the Javascript and the Html/CSS forum as well if you like, if it can be resolved using CSS or some client side scripting then they should be able to help you with it.

go through some good documents on "css".I hope you will get the answer

Yeah, I'm not a programmer at all so I don't even know how to approach this. What I'm looking for is something like this: http://www.decalcity.com/custom_deca..._lettering.php

If someone can help or do it for me I can afford to pay a reasonable charge.

This page that you have provided the link to is in PHP.

I was told java would be the easiest, however I would prefer php as that is what the majority of my site is and what I'm familiar with. What I'm looking for is the step 3 "Preview Fonts" application. Like I said I'm not a programmer and am not very familiar with writing this type of code.

If this thread should be in PHP - moderator please move it. Thank you


Actually, if you click the Preview fonts button it appars that Java is being used

How do you really want us to help. You said you are not a programmer so you are unlikely to write the code yourself. We can only point you in the right direction not do the whole thing for you.

In this problem you will just need to have a drop down containing the fonts. You can use JSP or PHP it does't matter. If the user's type their text and select the font you run a script that takes the selected value on the drop down and set that as the font for the user's text and open it in a preview page. But then if you say you are not a programmer then you will need to find someone to do all that for you.

That's exactly what I'm looking for. I don't know how to get it done so I am looking to pay a programmer to do it for me. How can I find one?

I figured that there's got to be someone on here that's willing to take this on for some cash.
