Can you provide the setup for the RSS feed? If you know that the feed will
always be links like this:
> <div id="title">
> <a href="123.html"><b>One Two Three</a></b></div>
> <a href="456.html">four five six</a> </div>
> <a href="789.html">seven eight nine</a> </div>
And you just want the first link to be bold? Then you could do this:
$('#title a:eq(0)').wrap('<b></b>');
That line says "wrap the first child in a bold tag.

Subject: [jQuery] Re: How to make the first word bold.
Somebody else probably has a more consice method but you could try something
like this
var mystring = "One Two Three"; //replace with your string var stringarray =
mystring.split(" "); var firstword = mystring.split(" ")[0]; myarray =
jQuery.grep(stringarray, function(n, i){
return (i > 0);
});
$("div#title a").append("<strong>" + firstword + "</strong>
").append(myarray.join(" "));
