    Hi Phill, Is this also accessible? Accessibility at my workplace is top priority and  I am looking for WCAG accesibility compliant solution to this issue. Thanks.

      This is just CSS that normally resides in a separate stylesheet file, pure display/presentation stuff so it should not affect screen readers at all. Its not a type of punctuation, just style info.

    Hi Phil,
    Your solution worked perfectly. For some reason, I'm unable to get this to work again.
    The edits to the paragraph no longer saves. Is there a setting I should check in my browser?

      Josie, indeed as of last week Rise has changed how their editor works so this type of solution won't work anymore. But you can still use a theme component to get the same effect. This is for the best, as far as security goes, for end users on Rise.
