Yes, I'll do that. I'll just wait for this first round of comments and then add that in to the release.

update

Acutally I am thinking it should be available as a hook in the Perl script but also as something that can be specified from the JavaScript end - e.g. add two optional arrays to the config in the HTML page for pre_column_txt and post_column_txt. E.g. if you want red around column two:

var pre_column_txt = new Array(undef,'<span style="color:red">');
var post_column_text = new Array(undef,'</span>');

How's that sound?

update2

Oh, I remember how it sounds :-). It sounds like an easy way to send cross-site scripting attacks. :-) Maybe I'll only do a hook after all. :-)

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
