Help with usergroups? prolly really quick

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

So were coding our own forums for a game system we made an we have the users level setup but now I need to make it do user groups. See the groups are defined by numbers:

0 - banned
1 - registered
2 - donator
3 - mod
4 - admin
5 - owner

I have this setup to define ranks
$rankstring = "<b><font color='#336699'>";

$row=update_lastVisit($_SESSION["user"][0]);

$x = 1;

while ( $whosonline = mysql_fetch_array( $res ) ) {
if ( $x != 1 ) {
echo ", ";
}
echo "<a href="member.php?id=$whosonline[id]">$rankstring$whosonline[name]</b></font></a></strike>";
$x++;
}

I need to know how to make it MySql read the row for the level and if there in that group then make their name that color. Like for admins something like

if user level is 5 then $rankstring = "html code for admin color";
and have that set ONLY admins as that color and not the other groups. How would I do it like that? The row that the usergroups are read from is 5 if that helps. Can someone help quickly?
