Changing Specific Word Colors in HTML Text

In order to modify the colors of specific words within a block of text using HTML or inline CSS, follow these steps:

1. Identify the target words you wish to highlight.
2. Create elements around each target word.
3. Assign unique classes or inline styles to each element, specifying the desired color value.

HTML Example:

<p></p>

In this example, the elements change the color of "January 30, 2011" to red (#ff0000) and "summer" to blue (#0000a0).

CSS Example (Using Classes):

  
    <style type="text/css">
      p { 
        font-size:14px; 
        color:#538b01; 
        font-weight:bold; 
        font-style:italic;
      }
      .date {
        color: #ff0000;
      }
      .season { /* OK, a bit contrived... */
        color: #0000a0;
      }
    </style>
  
  
    <p>
      Enter the competition by 
      <span class="date">January 30, 2011</span>
      and you could win up to $$$$ — including amazing 
      <span class="season">summer</span> 
      trips!
    </p>
  

Here, we define two CSS classes, .date and .season, and assign them to the respective elements. This approach provides greater flexibility and allows for easier maintenance of styles.
