I would like to have a CSS class for the words of Christ to be in red or apply some other types of formating. I realize that sometimes it is a portion of the verse that is spoken by Jesus, so I'm thinking it might have to be it's own separate Bible - KJV Red Letter Edition to embed the code for each word that is needed.
Here is my proposed solution: embed the text with the actual span tag and class needed to accomplish this. So for John 3:10, I simply replaced the text with the following. Is there a better way? For me this worked beautifully.
Jesus answered and said unto him, <span class='Jesus'>Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?</span>
Then in my bible_overrides.css file, I have placed the following code. Check this link if you want to see what's in my css override file (http://drupal.org/node/903608#comment-3879752).
.Jesus {
color: red;
}
Anyway, is someone working with this already. I'm willing to put in the effort to create the new Bible; I just don't want to waste my time if a) someone has already done it or b) there is a more effecient way.
The reason I doubt is because the Strong Numbers addition takes a different approach. I can see the advantage of another approach for making it easier for translations but then again there not a word to word mapping for a translation, so may the class embed method described above is the best way. Let me know.

benlotter commentedIf I do go this route are there other CSS classes I should add at the same time? For example a quote class?
That way other quotes could be called out and styled in a scecific way, regadless of the author. One possible application of this could be when NT authors are quoting OT scripture.
