Reply To: Styling php .date function with css

[Paulie_D]

So it outputs a <p>Posted on 31 august 2014</p>?

Not much you can do with that if you are trying to turn it into a ‘calendar like’ icon.

At the very least it should be broken up into separate parts like…

<p class="post-date">
<span class="post-date-head">Posted on</span>
<span class="post-date-day">31</span>
<span class="post-date-month">August</span>
<span class="post-date-year">2014</span>
</p>

That way we have separate elements that can be styled individually.

Get your PHP to spit that out…and you have a shot.
