Generating Fancy Drop Caps for Drupal
As you can see on this page, we're generating Drop Caps for the first letter in every blog page on this site.
There are two steps within the process. Firstly, we need a way to identify the first letter in the paragraph so that we can style it with CSS. If we wanted to style the first letter of every paragraph, we could simply use a CSS identified of p:first-letter but unfortunately not every browser supports this yet, and more importantly we only want to style the first letter in the first paragraph.
