This does not help me -- my changes add some HTML, not CSS.  I've found CSS 
really tricky and very hard to get what I want.

CSS is good (sort of) for changing how something looks, but` it is not so good
for adding content. I *guess* that might be possible, but that is beyond my
ability -- I'm a programmer, not a web designer (misquoting Dr. McCoy).

What you are saying there is no way of doing this (anymore)?  It used to work 
and I have code that probably should still work, but there is no way loading 
it?
