I guess I cannot do it the old way but by using occam's razor I just
used plain old HTML for font coloring
chatOutboundWindow.htmlText += "<font color='#ffffff'><b> " +
chatRoster.selectedItem.data + " said to: " +
connection.getJID().split("/")[1] + "</font></b><font color='#00FF99'>
" +thisXML.firstChild.childNodes[1].childNodes[0].nodeValue+"</font>";
I kind of wanted to stay with the old way via a CSS custom tag as seen
below.
