How to bold text in a QTextBrowser?

Question

I'm new to QGIS and Python and I want to know how to bold some text in a QTextBrowser. I'm using Ubuntu. I just tried these in the QGIS Python console but it doesn't give me the result.

>>> class color:
...   PURPLE = '\033[95m'
...   CYAN = '\033[96m'
...   DARKCYAN = '\033[36m'
...   BLUE = '\033[94m'
...   GREEN = '\033[92m'
...   YELLOW = '\033[93m'
...   RED = '\033[91m'
...   BOLD = '\033[1m'
...   UNDERLINE = '\033[4m'
...   END = '\033[0m'
>>> print color.BOLD + 'Hello World !' + color.END
ESC[1mHello World !ESC[0m
>>> import sys
>>> from termcolor import colored, cprint
>>> print colored('hello', 'red'), colored('world', 'green')
ESC[31mhelloESC[0m ESC[32mworldESC[0m

Please help me to find a solution to this problem.

QTextBrowser is not a console. What you tried are console escapes. If you want to make the text bold in QTextBrowser use the insertHtml method inherited from QTextEdit and use the appropriate HTML tags.
