CSS: Replace Image with Text

CSS Zen Garden is totally down. Don't know what's up with that. I hope it's back up soon since we have to submit a site for our web class and it's hard to look at the designs when they're not there!

So, I found an article explaining how to use images to replace text.

Here's a plug-in called Smartypants that's supposed to turn " into “,etc. (in other words, proper typographic marks). It's supposed to work for MT and BBEdit. I'll have to try it out.

CSS editor

I keep coming across this link for a TopStyle CSS editor. It's Windows-only so I'll probably never use it, but I'm posting link for future reference.

HTML float elements

I found a neat piece of css to style initial caps at BigBaer.com. The article is mainly aobut applying CSS floats to HTML elements, such as h1, p, and blockquote. The code for styling a cap was:

span.cap-g {
  float: left; 
  font-size: 1.7em;
  padding: 0 0.15em;
  margin: 0 0.15em 0 0; 
  background: #90ee90;
  border: 3px outset #2e8b57;
  }
