I tried to make a program that assigns a certain color sequence to all the characters, but the result is not as expected and everything indicates that there is a "charset " setting.
Then I'm going to put the code together with an image of the test output in the expectation that someone will tell me what I'm doing wrong.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="pt-br">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>Mudar a cor das letras</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
header('Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
$cor=array("blue","#00b300","red","black","#ff9900","#ff0066",
"#cc00cc","#00ccff","#336600","#996600","#ff00ff","#66ccff");
$nelcor=count($cor);
$texto="educação123";
echo $texto; echo "<br/>";
$nletras1=strlen($texto);//??? conta mais caracteres ex: ã=2
$nletras=mb_strlen($texto, 'utf8');
echo "strlen= ".$nletras1."<br>"."mb_strlen= ".$nletras."<br>";
if ($nletras==0) {
echo "Não há texto"; goto fim;
}
$vtexto = str_split($texto);//transformar string (cadeia ou texto) em array
(vector)
$contador = 0; //ler letra a letra todo o texto
while($contador <= $nletras-1) {
$ncor=$contador%$nelcor;
echo "<font size='5' color=$cor[$ncor]>$vtexto[$contador]</font>";
$contador++;
}
fim:;
?>
