Code One,

I'm brand new to CSS, so I'd screw up the terminology if I tried to explain, but I'm confident you can do what you want with Style Sheets. Basically, you would designate properties for different classes of text, then designate which characters belong to which class, and the browser does the rest. Post your question to that forum & you'll get better instructions.

Hope this helps.

You were right it is indeed a css question and you can do it with text within the <p> tag. unfortunatly I dont know how to do it with text within a button. I also have posted it in CSS on here and another really good forum, hopefully I'll get some answers soon. Thanks for the advice.

By the way it is done something like this:

<style type="text/css">
p:first-letter{
float:left;color:blue
}
</style>
<p>

You're on the right track. I expect you'll find that you can simply include the letter-specific code within the button code.

Good luck
