Here is my variable that I am actually getting from my MySQL Database:
<h1>This is a H1</h1>
<p>NOT BOLD</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>BOLD</strong></p>
I am using TinyMCE to format the code.
Here is how I echo it
<?php
// WHILE LOOP GETTING $ROW FROM MYSQL
$conContent = $row['content'];
Then, when I go to the page, it displays the output like this... http://i.snag.gy/BbMqx.jpg
I want the variable to make the echo formatted. So like then it will have all the html formatting.
You can insert your variable inside the <strong> tags using the following method:
<?php
/* getting row from your table */
$conContent = $row['content'];
?>
<strong> <?php echo $conContent; ?> </strong>
Another solution is:
$conContent = $row['content'];
echo "<strong>" . $conContent . "</strong";
//or echo "<strong> $conContent </strong";
If the styles are to be applied to all the rows, then you could use a foreach loop:
foreach($row as $v) {
echo "<strong>$v</strong";
}
Note: This assumes that you've the mysql array result stored in a variable called $row.
It's not just for <strong tags. You can use <h1>, <p>, <div> -- it doesn't matter. PHP will output the variable content in the location you specify.
Hope this helps!
<strong> with the appropriate tag or use CSS. Also, if you want all elements to have the same style, you could simply insert this code in your while loop, and it'll display all elements in the required style.Can you check the HTML source of the output? Is the HTML still around? It looks like strip_tags() or HTMLPurifier removes your HTML. Otherwise you would either see the formatting applied or the tags in the output.
If you have HTML code in your database you don't have to do anything with it in PHP, but can directly print it.
