PHP user account type highlighting in CSS

I have some problem getting the user account type from db. I create a column on db called acc_type, it checks if user acc_type is 1 or greater highlight the user name.

I wrote this code but it highlights all the username as red admin.

colors meaning:
Blue = Regular member = 0
Red = admin = 1
Green = Mod = 2
Orange = Super User = 3

Code here

<?php
if($dn5['acc_type'] =='0')
{
echo '<style>
.acc{
color:blue;
}
</style>';
}else if($dn5['acc_type']=='1'){
echo '<style>
.acc{
color:red;
}
</style>';
}else if($dn5['acc_type']=='2'){
echo '<style>
.acc{
color:green;
}
</style>';
}
?>
<span class="acc"><?php echo $username;?></span>

Have you checked what values you're passing into $dn5['acc_type']?

As well, your code is rather repetitive, you could simplify it greatly with something like

switch($dn5['acc_type']) {
    case 1:   $color = 'red';    break;
    case 2:   $color = 'green';  break;
    default:  $color = 'blue'; 
}
echo "<style>.acc { color: $color; }</style>";
