I suggest using the Zen Coding scripts I made (http://
www.angelwatt.com/coding/zen-coding_bbedit.php), which allow for
quickly writing HTML including wrapping it around selected text. This
can also help with your CSS. You can use the abbreviation "bgr:n" and
that expands to "background-repeat: no-repeat;"
