While editing HTML/ASPX/ASCX etc in visual studio 2005; whenever I select an html tag, visual studio highlights the entire tag in black and bold; the black I'm not so fussed about but the bold changes the length of the line and really messes up the formatting.

Is there a way to disable this?

Thanks, Chris

In VS2008, go to the Tools >> Options menu, expand the Environment category in the treeview and select Fonts and Colors. Under Display Items, select HTML Attribute Name and uncheck the "Bold" checkbox.

In VS2010: Select menu Tools - Options, select Environment / Fonts and Colors, look for Brace Matching (Rectangle) in the Display items list. Uncheck the Bold checkbox and click on Ok to confirm.

I'm not sure I'd consider them braces but this does fix the issue;Thanks!
