you are either able to hard code that information, but if you want to make it dynamic, you can add another element to the text document...

method 1:

code:

---

<?php

$a = array('blue','white','black');

$c = file_get_contents('./ads.txt');
preg_match_all('/\s*"text"\s*"([^"]*)"/',$c,$m);
echo "<ol>";
for($i=0;$i<count($m[1]);$i++){
    echo "<li><span style='color:".$a[$i]."'>".$m[1][$i]."</span></li>";
}
echo "</ol>";

?>

method 2:

text document:

code:

---

"Advertisements"
{
    "1"
    {
        "type"        "S"
        "text"        "Ad1"
        "color"       "blue"
    }
    "2"
    {
        "type"        "S"
        "text"        "Ad2"
        "color"       "white"
    }
    "3"
    {
        "type"        "S"
        "text"        "Ad3"
        "color"       "black"
    }
}

for($i=0;$i<count($m[1]);$i++){
