I can\'t get CSS to apply to the function below.Is it because it\'s a form or because it uses dl, dt, and dd tags?

Thanks in advance,

function show_loginform($disabled = false)
{

    echo '<form name="login-form" id="login-form" method="post" action="./index.php">

  </ul> 
  <p class=\"siteadd\"><input tabindex="3" accesskey="l" type="submit" name="cmdlogin" value="Login" ';

    echo ' /></p></form>';


}


You have an escaping error within your code. To show just an extract:

  echo ' ... <div class=\"logintitle\">Please login</div>  ... ';

You use ' but then escape ", which will lead to \" being printed out to the user. You don't have to escape " when using ' as main quotes. This could be the problem for your browser, not correctly identifying your divs and thereby not applying css.

addendum:

when echo'ing large portions (as already mentioned it would be better to use a templating system, e.g. smarty), you can close and reopen your php tags for better reading:

function show_loginform($disabled = false)
{

?>
<form name="login-form" id="login-form" method="post" action="./index.php"> 

  <div class="logintitle">Please login</div> 
  <dl class="usernamefield"> 
    ...
<?php
   if(true)
   {
      echo 'foobar';
   }
?>

   ...
  </p></form>
<?php

} // function end

and you can crash most syntax highlighters doing this btw ;)


Aside from mixing HTML and PHP in that way, your code is valid enough. I am able to apply CSS to the above exact code. The problem is in your CSS.


This doesn't solve your problem but a tip for future programming:

It's not necessary to compare $disabled to true as $disabled is already a boolean.


if ($disabled == true){
    echo 'disabled="disabled"';
}

The following shows much more of an understanding of boolean types:


if ($disabled){
    echo 'disabled="disabled"';
}

Post your CSS and it will be much easier to help you with your original problem...
