Forum:How do I make letters change color (e.g. A red word)

I want to know how to make colors, like this? [blue|Like this?]


 * To change odd words you surround it with span tags and specify the color of the text your text  . The technique is used in this simple template Colors (from wikipedia) which simplifies it by wrapping it in a simple template and just passing the colors of the foreground text and background to it, and the text to be 'colored'). Copy the template & its integral documentation section to your wiki, (but note the doc section also links to several other similar templates) - BulldozerD11 22:25, May 3, 2010 (UTC)

 * Hitting the 'Edit this page' button and copying the complete text works for me, or wasn't that what you meant? BramTalk/IGW 20:04, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
