How to apply css to php 'echo $tube->error;'? - php

Question

The CSS that I'm attempted to attach to 'echo $tube->error;' is not showing.. It just shows as default black text as if it had no css... How would I fix this?
Thanks (:
Below is what I need to fix..
The html/php part:
<div id="error">
<pre>
<?php } else {
echo $tube->error;
}
}
?>
</pre>
</div>
The html/php part in context:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['url']))
{
include('curl.php');
include('youtube.php');
$tube = new youtube();
$links = $tube->get($_POST['url']);
if($links) { ?>
<div id="result">
<b>Download Links ( Same IP Downloading only )</b> :
<?php
$format = '<p>Download video.%s - %s<br/>Right-click download link and choose etc...</p>';
while($link = array_shift($links))
{
echo vsprintf($format,$link);
}
?>
</div>
<div id="error">
<pre>
<?php } else {
echo $tube->error;
}
}
?>
</pre>
</div>
The CSS:
#error {
width:404px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
font-size:12;
font-family: 'Dosis', sans-serif;
color:white;
padding-top:20px;
}
The part of youtube.php(additional info.. not sure if you guys need this):
function get($url)
{
$this->conn = new Curl('youtube');
$html = $this->conn->get($url);
if(strstr($html,'verify-age-thumb'))
{
$this->error = "Adult Video Detected";
return false;
}
if(strstr($html,'das_captcha'))
{
$this->error = "Captcah Found please run on diffrent server";
return false;
}
if(!preg_match('/stream_map=(.[^&]*?)&/i',$html,$match))
{
$this->error = "Error Locating Downlod URL's";
return false;
}
Thanks again for any help!!

EDIT: I was wrong, it wasn't a CSS error, but a construct error, as others have noticed. I just rewrote the "The html/php part in context" to make it more clear and hopefully working:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['url']))
{
include('curl.php');
include('youtube.php');
$tube = new youtube();
$links = $tube->get($_POST['url']);
if($links)
{
?>
<div id="result">
<b>Download Links ( Same IP Downloading only )</b> :
<?php
$format = '<p>Download video.%s - %s<br/>Right-click download link and choose etc...</p>';
while($link = array_shift($links))
{
echo vsprintf($format,$link);
}
?>
</div>
<?php
}
else
{
?>
<div id="error">
<pre>
<?php echo $tube->error; ?>
</pre>
</div>
<?php
}
}
?>
Hope everything is ok now :)

Try this code:
<?php
if (isset($_POST['url'])) {
include('curl.php');
include('youtube.php');
$tube = new youtube();
$links = $tube->get($_POST['url']);
if ($links) {
?>
<div id="result">
<b>Download Links ( Same IP Downloading only )</b> :
<?php
$format = '<p>Download video.%s - %s<br/>Right-click download link and choose etc...</p>';
while($link = array_shift($links)) {
echo vsprintf($format,$link);
}
?>
</div>
<?php } else { ?>
<div id="error">
<pre>
<?php echo $tube->error; ?>
</pre>
</div>
<?php } } ?>
Don't forget to include the CSS... and please, please write more readable in the future.

Answer 3

Your <div id="error"> is never rendered if there is an error, because your else statement only includes the error text itself. Move the div and pre inside the else to get it working.
<?php } else { ?>
<div id="error">
<pre>
<?php echo $tube->error; ?>
</pre>
</div>
<?php } ?>

Try this css:
#error pre {
width:404px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
font-size:12;
font-family: 'Dosis', sans-serif;
color:white;
padding-top:20px;
}

Answer 5

Try to define your CSS also for #error pre and not only #error:
div#error {
width:404px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
padding-top:20px;
}
div#error pre
{
font-size:12;
font-family: 'Dosis', sans-serif;
color:white;
}
Use also an inspector (like Chrome's one, that you call with CTRL+I) to make sure:
- there are not overrides that undo there lines
- CSS is properly loaded (if in an external file)
