I have the following style (bottom), which contains some php which provides
the left and top values. This style is incorporated into the html at the
bottom and controls the position of $heading1. Problem is I wish to use the
same style for heading2, heading 3 etc. However they all will have different
positions. I could create a separate style for each. but Im sure there must
be a way of using the same style.
I had the idea of putting the style in a php function such as

<?php function myfunction($posx, $posy){ ?>
.mystyle{
position:absolute; left:<?php echo $posx;?>px; top:<?php echo $posy;?>px;
}
<?php } ?>

but this didnt work. Help greatly appreciated. my current code is below
