  1. The only way I can think you can do this is to put the first letter in a <span> tag and assign it a CSS style.
  2. Use a span as suggested above or just use an inlinre style
  3. <span style="font:900 200% verdana,arial,sas-serif; float:left;">Y</span>our text here. this is called a drop cap. but it looks really bad in internet explorer. the following book will show you what to do. You should read css hacks and filters http://www.idest.com/csshacks Also join http://www.css-discuss.org/ It is a CSS discussion list. They help newbies and pros. Get a throw away email address for this. You'll get about a dozen emails from this list a day. Many libraries world wide have books related to the internet, web and computers in general. Go to your local public library and get the username and password for http://www.firstsearch.org/ You can look up the book yourself but they will have to order it for you. Sometimes this can take awhile if the book is checked out by someone else. After reading the books and making copies of certain pages with a photo copier simply return it to them. By using firstsearch you can search for any book in the world. Some libraries might charge a small fee but most are free. Every web design book I have read was acquired in this fashion. :)
