[pmwiki-users] Chords problem

[Nils Knappmeier]

I once tried to create a custom-markup that would use CSS to put chords 
at the top of current character. Oh, that's confusing. An example:

[C]No woman no [G]cry
should be converted to something like

<div id="chord">C</div>No woman no <div id="chord">G</cry>

And I wanted to specify the CSS for "chord" such that the contents (C, 
G) appears relatively shifted upwards by one line and with a width of 0 
so that "No woman" would by shifted just below the chord.
Does anybody have an idee whether that's possible or not?

The great thing about being the only species that makes
a distinction between right and wrong is that we can 
make up the rules for ourselves as we go along.
