My css doesn't work after the php codes

Question

My css doesn't work after the php codes. I'd have to rewrite the whole html code after the elseif's for the format to work. I've tried inserting the html codes in 's but it still won't style the way it should. my navigation won't show either. i don't understand.

if(isset($_POST['sby'])){
  $value = $_POST['sby'];
  if(isset($_POST['search'])){
      if($value == 'cname'){?>
            <!doctype html>
            <head>
            <meta charset="utf-8">
            <title>Untitled Document</title>
            <link href="../../css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

php server side, css\html client side, anyway i have no idea what you are asking. looks like some of the html, the header block, should be outside the php loop ... move the first php block to below <body> — user557846

That's because the php code needs to go after you call the CSS, otherwise it will only load when $value=cname. — coopersita

The tables after the elseif's would show but the formatting won't follow. my navigation is gone, the logo is gone. just a plain table without styling. I'm sorry if it's confusing. — Jams Medalla

Try this:

 <!doctype html>
 <head>
 <meta charset="utf-8">
 <title>Untitled Document</title>
 <link href="../../css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
 <!--[if lt IE 9]>
 <script src="http://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
 <![endif]-->
 </head>

 <body>

 <div class="container">
 <header>
  <a href="home.php"><img src="../../img/Intellibest-EMM Logo.jpg" alt="Insert Logo Here" name="Insert_logo" width="180" height="141" id="Insert_logo" style="background-color: #C6D580; display:block;" /></a>
</header>
<div class="sidebar1" style="height:auto">
  <ul class="nav">
    <li><a href="../home.php">Home</a></li>
    <li><a href="../look.php">Look For</a></</li>
    <li><a href="../make.php">Make Something</a></li>
    <li><a href="../settings.php">Settings</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['sby'])){
  $value = $_POST['sby'];
  if(isset($_POST['search'])){
      if($value == 'cname'){?>

This way, the top of you page will show up, regardless of the value of $value.

I had a similar problem. If it's under any other Category like <a href> then don't put the style to be normal id but you must put it as it's with the Category #something a:hover hope that helps.

try editing this part:

href="../../css/style.css"

and change it to

href="css/style.css"

or you can try doing it manually
