HTML-CSS: Tips of the Day
CSS strikethrough different color from text?
Yes, by adding an extra wrapping element. Assign the desired line-through color to an outer element, then the desired text color to the inner element. For example:
<span style='color:red;text-decoration:line-through'> <span style='color:black'>black with red strikethrough</span> </span>
...or...
<strike style='color:red'> <span style='color:black'>black with red strikethrough<span> </strike>
(Note, however, that <strike> is considered deprecated in HTML4 and obsolete in HTML5. The recommended approach is to use <del> if a true meaning of deletion is intended, or otherwise to use an <s> element or style with text-decoration CSS as in the first example here.)
