Entry tags:question: layouts

Hit a snag, not sure if there's a way to do what I want, but thought I'd bring it to the masters before I dismissed it.

I'm trying to do a layout in Generator to sort of emulate the typesetting of sections of Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves-- which is basically ergodic literature. What do I mean? Like this.

It's not so much the layout that's puzzling me (though ideas/suggestions are welcome) as much as... throughout the book, the word "house" appears in chromakey blue. I'm trying to find a way to have the coding replace all instances of a single word with... the same text in blue, as that was the only way I could think of to do it... and it's not working. It'd be nice to have, as in the book, you run into a blued "house" at least every chapter, so it's a pretty core thing.

Thanks in advance to anybody, even if it's just to say "not possible" so I can stop fiddling.

I'm going to be the one that says it's not possible. At least not the way I assume you mean to have you code something in CSS or HTML and it'd automatically do it.

You could set a class in your CSS and then wrap the word in a span tag. So basically in the CSS...



Along with any additional changes such as making it all uppercase, etc.

And then any time you typed your word..
