in db
- add a column
status
with a value of 1 or 2 numbers ( it'll be the id of a status) - Create a table
status
with astatus_id
,status_title
,status_color
,color_id
,enabled
in your code :
in your div , get the color of the task by getting the stored id
$colorOfTheTask = "SELECT color_id FROM status,task WHERE task.status = status.id ";
- Use this on each of your td (i suppose you're using tables)
<td <?php echo 'style="background-color:'.$color_id.';color:'.$color_id.'"';?></td>
Like that you'll be able to manage your colours easier. You can still use a if statement like this :
<td <?php if($id_status==1){
echo 'style="background-color:red;color:red';}
if($id_status==2){
echo 'style="background-color:green;color:green';}
if($id_status==3){
echo 'style="background-color:#amber-color-code;color:#amber-color-code"';} ?>
</td>
