Dont’ do CSS in your word processor

You just never know where problems can stem from.

Never, ever do CSS markup in a word processor. Well, I did. It was only two sentences but I didn’t want to make a typo. MT calls the Textile plug in (which I’ll replace with Markdown when I install 3.1) on my entries. Textile educated the word processor quotes in the div I use to denote second thoughts when I update an entry.

Never got caught by this before because I normally cut and paste to my plain text editor when I add in the HTML markup.

I spent several stupefied minutes trying to figure out why my style sheet wasn’t working on just one entry.
