| I have seen html docs where texts were highlighted or having color background (not BODY BGCOLOR=...). Was it done with just html tags or other processes were used? Thanks - Jun. |

Hi Prettyphysicslady,
Thanks for the idea. But what I would really like is to highlight an html text(s), like you would highlight a paragraph on a, say, paperback with colored pigment (highlighter pen) so it would be easy to find later. Jun. |

Here's how
< font style="background-color:yellow" >yellow highlighted text Just close the spaces in the opening font tag
< font...yellow" > (There should be no space between < and font or yellow" and > I hope that's clear. If not, look at this web page and view the source code: Highlighted Text |

| Bird_nj - just what I had in mind! Thanks! Jun. |

The new modern way to do this is via 'span' tags. That is, instead of
<font style="background-color:yellow">yellow highlighted text</font>
You would use
<span style="background-color:yellow">yellow highlighted text<span>
In any case, you should definitely add </FONT> anywhere you use <FONT> |
