Message border should change

[toplisek]

I have css for message:


.message { width:auto;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;
line-height: 16px; text-decoration: none;
background-color: #FFFFFF;border:1px solid #FF3300; padding:2px }

How to do that it will change border automatic according to error width
What does error width mean?

If user puts data and my form on web site shows that there is error in input, it should be error message with border as CSS. Problem is that it is not width as error. It is actually 100 % width of border. Do you know how to fix this? So border should change with text width within message.

I *think* I understand what you mean, but I'm not too sure about it.
You have a div, and you want it to have a different border color if there was an error.
Just make 2 classes:
.message {}
and .error {}
And set the border color and width for each of them.
In the PHP code of your page, use a simple IF:
echo "<div ";
if ($errors_found) { echo "class=\"error\""; }
else { echo "class = \"message\""; }
echo ">";
Is that what you were looking for?

Message is in my case error. If there is no error it will redirect to another page. So, I do not need two classes. Just error (my name is for this message)

You could've said that from the beginning...
/* Check for the POSTDATA and do whatever you want with it */
if (isset($_POST['whatever'])) {
/* Process data and set $error variable */
}
if ($error) {
/* Output the error and anything else needed. */
}
else {
header("Location: redirected.php");
}
Is that what you wanted?

Again.
I do not need your code as I have already this.

You don't want any codes... what do you want then?
I just don't understand what you want. Try to correct your posts if you want someone to help you.
