css formatting in php

I have a css question. I have the following php code which displays a name.

 while ($db_field = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        print $db_field['ship_name'] . "<BR>";

I'm trying to add some text style to it but I'm not that good in css and I'm somehow lost. I'm trying to do something like <t> $db_field['ship_name'].<t/> but it gives me an error.

This will echo out the data into a span tag:

echo "<span>" . $db_field['ship_name'] . "</span>";

To add a css class: 

echo "<span class=\"class_name\">" . $db_field['ship_name'] . "</span>";

Then in your css file:

span.class_name { font-size:24px; color:#666; }

judging by your comment, probably you want

print "<span class='t'>".$db_field['ship_name']."</span><BR>";

and for your CSS file define 

.t {  font-size: 50pt; color:black; text-shadow: 0 1px 2px white; }

There are 2 ways of doing this. Either you embed html in PHP or write separate HTML snippet. I will show you the both ways : The first one is already explained above in the answer by sinclairchase.

echo "<td>" . $db_field['ship_name'] . "</td>";

The other way is :

<?php while ($db_field = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
 ?>
   <td>
      <?php print $db_field['ship_name'] . "<BR>"; ?>
   </td>
 <?php  }  ?>

I dont unsderstand why you write t in question it would be td.
