Thanks for such detailed tutorial, very helpful. I have a question, what if in the displayed result in the text box I want to bold the first 2-3 letters of each word or if a word is longer like maybe 10 letters then maybe turn first 4-5 letters bold? Please let me know how can I do that. I have tried googling it a lot. Thanks

There is no way to do the same thing completely on the client side, correct?

[@mathhenker4140]

Mine is having cors problems, should it be?
