Quick question about italics

I've noticed that, in some styles, text that's in italics shows up in a different colour to the main text. I kind of need something like this because my phone browser doesn't show italics - it just shows normal text, so I can't tell when it's in italics).

Does anyone here know how to do something like that?

You can do that by adding a bit of code to the Custom CSS box here.

In the code you specify which colour you want either by using its hex number or for simple primary colours just the name. Like this:

i {color: #ff0000;}

or like this:

i {color: red;}

And you probably want to do:

i, em { etc }

So that you get both the tags people use for that kind of thing.
