HTML：仅使用一个标签即可关闭多个标签

Question

I have a log file that has ANSI colors. I use PHP to str_replace these into <span color=""> HTML tags.

If I use PHP str_replace, and parse color resets as </span> , how would I end more than one span declaration?

Example: <span color="red"><span color="blue"></span>

How could I make it so that one </span> ends both the previous statements?

Answer 1

You wouldn't, you need to use two </span></span> tags to close both <span> tags.

For your case this would be

<span color="red"><span color="blue"></span></span>

Note: As @calvinf pointed out in a comment below you should use style="color:blue;" since the color attribute has been deprecated for a long time.

Answer 2

When the browser interprets the <span> tag, it expects a closing tag for that Exact Same tag. therefore no matter how many you have open you cannot use a single </span> because the browser will be desperately searching for the others.

Answer 3

I think there's no way to that. I think you have to way to do it, First mananualy add the missing " </span> " which it's a little ugly Or you could find out why you're missing one
