Hi.

I have been unsuccessful trying to edit typography using the ” edit HTML source ” button of the Joomla ” Custom Output ” editor using this template instruction:

The New Blockquote (with open and close quote). Use <div class=”blockquote”><blockquote>Your quote goes here!</blockquote></div>

Thanks in advance for your help! 🙂

HAve you tried to turn the WYSIWYG editor off when editing it?

Try this code

<blockquote><span class=”open”>Y</span>our quote goes her<span class=”close”>e!</span></blockquote>

Works for me 😉

Your recommendation works like a charm. Would you mind offering a brief explanation of what I was doing wrong. I will need to understand in order to make other typographical changes.

The two other posters have suggested that the WYSIWYG editor be turned off when editing – not sure how to “turn off the editor”.

In short, I would also like to know if this was an HTML coding problem caused by some additional tags being added by the editor. Which editor is recommended? Any suggestions are welcome! 🙂 🙂

Please view the Nerine template here: http://www.joomlart.com/templates_demo.php

I am trying to recreate the ” Testimonials ” module ( located at center of page and to bottom right of slideshow ).

There is some additional formatting. How would I modify the following code block so it mirrors the ” Testimonials ” module. A copy and paste from the editor does not work.

<blockquote><span class=”open”>Y</span>our quote goes her<span class=”close”>e!</span></blockquote>

Thanks in advance!
