CSS 'Drop Cap' example
This is my Drop Cap example....
Basic code copied from www.mandarindesign.com/troops.html# alphabetblocks
Do 'view source' to see the code necessary to accomplish this. Experiment with the settings in the STYLE definition. The M example has the style keywords on separate lines to help you identify them. The 'Michael' example makes some glaring changes to be sure you notice them!
M ichael likes to play with little snippets of code. Here is a sample. I set the overall paragraph width to 400 pixels. Next I placed unique styles on the SPAN tag, to control the presentation of the character 'M', which is the first letter in my name. I could also do my entire name. [see below] Just a little more text here so that you can see how it wraps around the drop cap.
Michael likes to play with little snippets of code. Here is a sample. I set the overall paragraph width to 400 pixels. Next I placed unique styles on the SPAN tag, to control the presentation of the characters 'Michael'.
