sure, you can do that with :
- server-side language like(PHP, ASP, JSP, CFM, Ruby, ...)
- javascript
here is javascript function
function setBold(string){
var pos = string.indexOf(" ");
var pos2 = string.indexOf(" ",pos+1);
var first = string.slice(0,pos2).bold();
var last = string.slice(pos2);
document.write(first+" "+last);
setBold("salut c'est moi");
you can do that (properly) with regexp
