<pre><code id="code-183607">&lt;p style=&quot;border: 1px solid blue&quot;&gt;Your text here&lt;/p&gt;

Sorry perhaps i did clearly state what i meant, i don't what a border around the text area, i what the text itself to be outlined. Just like an underline or strikethrough can be applied to the text.

I don't know of any way to outline text itself. Borders can be added to nearly any element (p, span, a, input, etc), but not to the text. You can place your text in any of those elements, and add the border as needed.<br />

As you can see here, how they do it is by overlapping words over words over words. It makes a 'glow' effect. Some are midly easy though, but yeah, you'd need to define the text more then once. It makes pages DIRTY.

Outline Text on Webpage

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the main markup language for creating web pages and other information to be displayed in a web browser, providing both the structure and content for what is sent from a web server through the use of tags. The current implementation of the HTML specification is HTML5.

HTML

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a language used for describing the look and formatting of a document written in a markup language. Usually used to change web pages and user interfaces written in HTML, it can also be applied to any kind of XML document. CSS is designed primarily to distinguish the content of a document from its presentation.

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.
