This works, thanks...but not quite as I wished.
I understand now that I can amend/assign a property in this way...so
what I need to know now, is what is the term used for when you enclose
some text with {{{ }}}.
Is this a block quote?
Where do I find this in the sytlesheetlayout so i can copy it and set
the yellowbox to be the same (then I think this will work perfectly)
