Being very new to _javascript_ I have little idea on how to accomplish your
sujestion. My aim is to have just the surname bold. (ie: BUCHANAN)
You sujest I add css to the safemail function. The only css I can add to it and get working
bolds the who name (surname, christian & nick name) [see sample script] If you can
show me how I can just have the surname bold i'd appreciate it others wise I'll have to try
something else.
function safemailbold(name, domain, display) {
displayed=(typeof(display)=="undefined") ? name+"@"+domain : display
document.write('<a href="" + name + '@' + domain + ' class="bold">' + displayed + '</a>');
}
Cheers!!

Hi Al, it doesn't make sense to be performing formatting inside the script like that, think about what you're really trying to acheive.
I'd at least do something like:
safemail('shirazman',' hotmail.com','BUCHANAN', 'Mark (Buck)')
and the safemail function does semanticly nice html, with css for the bold'ness.

No it is not deprecated. It is declared in the XHTML 1.0 Strict DTD.

That is not the problem, the problem is the way in which it is used
within the script element.
This explanation applies to HTML:

For XHTML, you need to use a CDATA section as I explained in my previous
post. For backwards compatibility (i.e. serving XHTML as text/html) you
should use a combination of both techniques)
