Adding a border around a username??

[Cloverfield]

Okay so a premium member kept asking me to change their username to white because they thought it would look cool. I have done it but it is very hard to see on the main index page. This is how it looks on his profile (http://www.futuramaff.com/member.php?u=4381) as you can see it's easily read there but harder when smaller. Is it possible to add a black border around the name so that it can be easily readable? Many thanks.

You have:

<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#FFFFFF;background: url(images/fffsparkly.gif)">nacirema</span>

Just add the border in there:

<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#FFFFFF;background: url(images/fffsparkly.gif); border: 1px black solid;">nacirema</span>

You may want to add some padding also.

Hmm, I added the 2nd code and the username totally disappeared

You need to only add the first span part, not the whole thing.

I added this into the first part

<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#FFFFFF;background: url(images/fffsparkly.gif); border: 1px black solid;">

and

</span>

into the 2nd part.

I can see nothing wrong with that code.

If it helps, when I press update and go BACK to the HTML markup I just saved, this is in the first box

<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#FFFFFF;background: url(images/fffsparkly.gif); border: 1px blac

Nothing else :S

Ah, it looks like it only takes xx characters. Best thing to do then is just use a class and put the properties in the class definition.

You've lost me now lol

.hisclass {font-weight:bold;color:#FFFFFF;background: url(images/fffsparkly.gif); border: 1px black solid;}

<span class="hisclass">
</span>
