substrings! output everything before the first ^ character. Read the int after ^ that determines the color and output appropriate HTML tag. Cut w/e your outputed out and repeat the loop untill the whole string is processed. |

use something like this...
you need the \ in front of the ^ because ^ is a special character in the regular expression syntax |
