Hi Matthew. May be a pseudo-element, and not a pseudo-class, is what is needed. However, I actually think *not*. I think psudo-*class* is what we should have. Because, a pseudo element is placed at the start or at the end of an element. But I propose something that encapsulate the entire "body text". Thus, a selector to match content that is *already there*. And not a selector to *add* any new content. Leif Halvard Silli
