Jeanne,
Hmmm. This looks like a citation, so you could use something like:
<cite>The Great Escape <span class="author">.... by JD</span></cite>
Then, in the CSS:
cite {
font-family: whatever1 ;
}
..author {
font-family: whatever2 ;
}
That would apply whatever2 to ANY element of class author. If that's
too general, you could instead say:
cite span.author {
font-family: whatever2 ;
}
Which means "apply this style to any <span> of class author that is the
descendant of (i.e. contained inside) a <cite>".
The exciting details of CSS selectors can be found at
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/selector.html. I recommend ingestion of a
stimulant before reading.
