What is the html code for highlighting text?

Alright, I am posting a blog and there is a sentence in my blog that I want pre-highlighted so that anyone who reads my blog will have that sentence highlighted. Does anyone know the html code for that? Example: The html code for coloring your text is: <font color="[Color code here]">TYPE TYPE TYPE.</font>

  1. <b>BOLD</b> This is another possibility <span style='background-color: yellow;'>YELLOW</span> You can also use font instead of span but is serves no purpose since there are no font elements in it. Span is basically a container.
  2. Try something like this: <font style="background:red; color:black; ">Text....</font>
  3. If you want it not the blue-ish colour, but yellow this code works: <font class="highlight">blah blah blah</font>
