Have a Little Fun With CSS

Going Green on St. Patrick’s Day

Sorry I didn’t get to this a little sooner.   Didn’t have the idea till some things were cleared off the desk and out of my mind.   Yes, I just said “Out of my mind”

I’ve been modifying a theme lately and doing a lot of goofing re-coding of the CSS to get it to look the way it should instead of the way it did.

This afternoon I got to wondering if I put a div class at the top of a post using the HTML tab would it format just the one post with a little CSS coding in the style.php.

What the heck give it a try I thought.

Add a Little Color on Special Occasions

I put this code in the style sheet

#green {
background: #c2f0c2;
padding: 5px;
}
#green h3 {
background: #33cc33;
}

Then from the HTML tab I added at the top of the post <div id=”green”>

At the very end of the post I put in the </div> to end it.

Of course you will have to tweak it according to how your theme css is setup.   But it can add some very annoying PUNCH to a post.   Kind of like a bad pun.

However, used with discretion and a little practice you can create some very nice custom styling for you blog posts.

But please, don’t use green.
