Wordpress style.php file

Can't see to update my style.php file with the following

Here is my style.php coding..

<?php header("Content-type: text/css; charset: UTF-8");
$fontColor = "#<?php echo get_option('mwg_font_paragraph'); ?>";
?>

#content p {
color: <?php echo $fontColor; ?>;
}

If clear out that link and manually enter a color, it works fine:

$fontColor = "#FF0000";

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated..

As Nirpendra stated, you're using PHP inside PHP. Your code should look like this instead:

<?php header("Content-type: text/css; charset: UTF-8");
$fontColor = "#" . get_option('mwg_font_paragraph');
?>

#content p {
color: <?php echo $fontColor; ?>;
}

When you want to concatenate (join) multiple values together in PHP, whether they be strings, function calls, variables or something else, you need to use the . to join them, rather than nest additional PHP tags.

All the <?php ... ?> tags do is indicate what code PHP should parse, and when you're inside those tags, it's already parsing what you write.

You are using nested php inside php in your first line.
