Background suggestion for multiple quotes

[teraßyte]

I was visiting some minutes ago a SMF forum and I noticed a nice thing that could be useful for a lot of peoples.

Nested quotes have a different background to make more visible the different quotes.
Checking the source I have found this code:

<blockquote> --> THIRD COLOR

	   <cite>THIRD quote author</cite>

		   <blockquote> --> SECOND COLOR

			   <cite>SECOND quote author</cite>

				   <blockquote> --> FIRST COLOR

					   <cite>FIRST quote author</cite>

					   Text of the FIRST quote

				   </blockquote>

			   Text of the SECOND quote

		   </blockquote>

	   Text of the THIRD quote

   </blockquote>

And this CSS:

blockquote {

   //Other options

	   background: FIRST COLOR HERE;

   }


   blockquote blockquote {

   //Other options

	   background-color: SECOND COLOR HERE;

   }


   blockquote blockquote blockquote {

	   background-color: THIRD COLOR HERE;

   }

Now this code is valid only if you have 3 or less nested quotes but could be a nice addition something similar to the new skin :)

I think that would be nice as well... you should post this on the IPB 3 alpha board, I think it fits in as feedback regarding the new skin :) -- that way Rikki is more likely to see it.

+1 :) , does sound like a nice idea.

Yup, I was going to post it on IPB 3 Preview but I had some problems on my end with the site so I posted it there >_<

Anyway now I'm going to post a link to this topic in the preview forum :thumbsup:
