Cedric YaBB Moderator Offline Posts: 1838	Color or highlight words within a text Jun 25th, 2009, 8:57am   Is there an easy way to color or use a different font(bold) for parts of a text? or do i really have to split it, calculate the width and put it back together. Is there an easier way to do that ?

You might find a library doing the hard job for you, but basically it would be the stuff you described. Ideally, we would have an HTML display component...
