I expect there is an (easy?) way to be able to dynamically alter the appearance of text in a web application. The example is using a WORepetition on a table, where some elements of the table are going to be bold.

Do you mean a WOConditional? With a WOConditional, you can change the appearance of text based on the value of the conditional expression. Or you can bind the WOString "value" key to a Java function that returns text modified by HTML tags based on some criterion. There are many ways to modify the appearance of text using WO.


I tried just adding the <B></B> tags to the string being displayed, but not unsurprisingly, WO allowed for this to make it appear literally in the page, rather than interpreted as html code.

HTML in a string will be interpreted if you set the "escapeHTML" binding to "false". Note that this can be a security issue if users are allowed to enter arbitrary HTML that will be interpreted.
