Colour

1 New Member
Guys,

I have a drop down list on a webpage of a list of names. How could i have each name in a different colour or each name with a coloured background ?

Is this something relatively easy to do in the mysql database?

the site uses php and mysql. Would i also need to do something in the php code for the page as well ?

Sorry.....but am very new to php and mysql and have some experience of php and mysql CMS websites. So i know just a little bit about coding.

Nothing to do really with PHP or MySQL, just plain HTML. Example:[html]<select name="aa">
<option value="" style="color:#006600;background-color:#dddddd;">Select</option>
<option value="Red" style="color:blue;background-color:red;">Red</option>
<option value="White" style="color:red;background-color:white;">White</option>
<option value="Blue" style="color:white;background-color:blue;">Blue</option>
</select>[/html]
