Adding Dropcaps to Paragraphs

 / Published in: CSS
 

This adds a dropcap to the first letter of a paragraph when you surround it with span. This method is far more efficient than using the :first-letter psuedo class which does not work on all browsers.

  1. p span.dropcap {float:left;font-size:100px;line-height:0.8;padding:0 10px 10px 0;}
