How to change look and feel? Can you provide me with a neat solution? I am sure you can...?

Question

Hi Gurus,

Well, I have some php scripts which runs very well. But their look are so plain and simple. I want to change the look and feel completely. How do I do it and which software should i be using. Please note that all the files are in filename.php format and there are special folders containing some of the rare images which the script use such as plain buttons etc. I want to give it a more attractive look, changing the fonts, adding more images and colors etc. All these without affection the proper runnin of the script.

Your kind answers and solutions are most welcomed.

Regards

Oops.. forgot to say about that. I am using Windows XP.

Answer 1

There are several way to accomplish this. I use a common html template for php pages that uses the same header and sidebar so they all have a similar look and feel. You could also do this by using php to call common files with header and sidebar information contained within. In both cases using common css style sheets will simplify the process.

Answer 2

If you are using these PHP scripts to create HTML, your OS doesn't matter. What you need to do is learn CSS to style the html.

Some good tutorials and other information can be found at http://www.w3schools.com/css/

Answer 3

Giving your operating system would help, or we could just all assume you are running Windows XP SP2 or VISTA...
