Format First article on home page - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support

hi,

is possible somehow style first article on homepage different others?

i want kind of intro text in coloured box, following stories on plain white background. hoping they'd way add kind of unique suffix article but, if there can't find it.

any appreciated.

thanks

it's called "inline styling"

any article can contain other html tags <p> tags , <strong> , <em>.

for instance, if wanted text box dark blue background, thin black border, , white fonts, 450px wide, floated right, generous breathing room around text, place inside article:

code: select all

<div style="width:450px; float:right:border:1px solid #000;color:#fff;background-color:#050a59; padding:30px; font-size:1.2em;"><p>maecenas nec urna eget lacus dictum hendrerit. nam sit amet tellus. pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.</p>
</div>


this holds true joomla article, not first 1 on home page.

note if love box, , want reuse in other places on site, done doing:

code: select all

<div class="frontpagebox"><p>maecenas nec urna eget lacus dictum hendrerit. nam sit amet tellus. pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus et netus et malesuada fames ac turpis egestas.</p></div>


and

code: select all

div.frontpagebox {
width:450px;
float:right:
border:1px solid #000;
color:#fff;
background-color:#050a59;
padding:30px;
font-size:1.2em;
}


good luck!
