    JavaScript Objects: More on String Methods - The FontColor() Method


    (Page 4 of 6 )

    To change the color of your text, just use the FontColor() method. We covered Colors a few tutorials back, and you can find a sheet with color codes in that article. Here is how you write the code to change your text color:


    <html>

    <body>


    <script type="text/javascript">


    var smash="ARGH! HULK SMASH! HULK SMASH GOOD!!!"


    document.write("<p>Look, green text!: " + smash.fontcolor("Green") + "</p>")

    </script>


    </body>

    </html>

    This would display the following text:

      Look, green text!: ARGH! HULK SMASH! HULK SMASH GOOD!!!

    The FontSize() Method

    Just as we can change the color of text, we can change the size as well. I know, it's a real shocker. We do this with the FontSize() method:


    <html>

    <body>


    <script type="text/javascript">


    var smash="Hulk SMASH!"

    document.write("<p>" + smash.fontsize(16) + "</p>")


    </script>


    </body>

    </html>

    This prints out:

    Hulk SMASH!
