    Ben - If you have a CSS file that defined styles for tag based selectors, you wouldn't want to use those selectors as style options in a drop down for a rich text editor. Rather, you'd have options in the RTE for h1,h2,h3 (or large header, medium header, small header), which the user could then use.... read more »

I believe in love. I believe in compassion. I believe in human rights. I believe that we can afford to give more of these gifts to the world around us because it costs us nothing to be decent and kind and understanding. And, I want you to know that when you land on this site, you are accepted for who you are, no matter how you identify, what truths you live, or whatever kind of goofy shit makes you feel alive! Rock on with your bad self!
