CSS: small-caps, the first letter is a bit bolder

css, fonts, html

Solution

For the first letter of each word not.

But you can for the first letter in the `td` element using the `:first-letter` pseudo selector

For only enlarging the first letter of each word you could use the `text-transform:capitilize`

Demo with both tricks : http://jsfiddle.net/gaby/8KjT5/1

Alternatively if using jquery you could use the `Lettering.js` plugin

Calling it with

$(function(){
    $('table.form td').lettering('words');
});

combined with the css

table.form td span[class^="word"]{
    display:inline-block;
}
table.form span[class^="word"]:first-letter {
    font-weight:bold;
    font-size:17px;
}

you get the desired result as seen at http://jsfiddle.net/gaby/8KjT5/3/

Problem

Is there a way to make the First letter a bit more thinner or vice verca? Please see the image and css provided. css: ``` table.form td { padding: 10px; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-variant: small-caps; font-size: 15px; } ``` As you can see the first letter of each word which is capitalized is a bit more black/bolder
