You can try this:

<?php echo '<span class="heading">Hello World!</span>' ?>

<style>
 .heading{color:red;}
</style>

the styling is applied but **text-align:center** is not applying? – Abdul Rehman Khan Feb 25 '17 at 10:04
You need to use `div` instead of `span`. `text-align:center` won't work with span. – Md Mahfuzur Rahman Feb 25 '17 at 10:09
so how i do it with span tag? – Abdul Rehman Khan Feb 25 '17 at 10:11
The Element is, by default, an "inline" element. Meaning unlike block level elements (

etc.) the span only takes up as much horizontal space as its content. text-align: center IS working, but you're applying it to an element that doesn't have a width greater than its content (as all block elements do).

You can generate the HTML according to your requirements.

For e.g.

echo "<b>Hello World</b>"; // Bold text
echo "<i>Hello World</i>"; //Italics text

echo "<div style='text-color:blue;'>Hello World</div>" ; //Blue colored text

There are many other ways you can thave this. Try to generate the correct HTML and CSS.
