Using Magazine Style Drop Caps in Blogger blog
2007-10-23 20:36:00
Dropcaps like in a fancy magazine is what you see in this post with the original trick at Mandarin Design. It is done by putting the first letter of your post within -tags, with a class named "dropcaps". In your CSS-definitions, you can set this first letter to Very Big, and in a different color. Just copy this code and paste them in your CSS style between the tag:.dropcaps { float:left; color: $headerBgColor; font-size:100px; line-height:80px; padding-top:1px; padding-right:5px; }In your post, the first letter is inside a span like this: D. The result is very nice: a large capital that stretches over 5 lines.[Google Hates Me]
