hello all!
I'm learning Javascript and want some help from you gurus.

Please see this example and then I'm able to rectify my problem.

>> document.write ("Welcome to Javascript")

I want to format the font color to &quot;red&quot; and the font face to &quot;impact&quot;. I can bold the string by writing (&quot;<b>Welcome to Javascript</b>&quot;). But how to change the font color and the face.

Your help is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Do this:

document.write (&quot;<font color='red' face='impact'>Welcome to Javascript</font>&quot;)

That will definitely work. But I think the font tag is depricated. I would use CSS to format the text.
for instance;
<html>
<head><STYLE type=&quot;text/css&quot;>
<!--
p {
font-family: Impact;
color: red
}
-->
</STYLE>
</HEAD><body>
<script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
<!--
document.write (&quot;<p>Welcome to Javascript</p>&quot;)
-->
</script>
</body>
</html>
Just my opinion take it for what it's worth.
