If I have a CSS container which I use for quotes, but the quote

  • 0

If I have a CSS container which I use for quotes, but the quote spans several paragraphs, how can I situate the formatting to show the multiple paragraphs inside the container? Example:

#quotebox {
width: 80%;
border-top: 1px solid #242729;
padding-left: 10%;
padding-bottom: 2%;
}

Is my container I use for quotes in my CSS. I then have a quote that’s multiple paragraphs. Right now I have it like so:

<p id="quotebox">“Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet ... ”</p>

Where the quote is several paragraphs. If I do:

<p id="quotebox">

<p>paragraph 1</p>
<p>paragraph 2</p>

</p>

the formatting gets ruined. Is there a way to have multiple paragraphs show up under that kind of CSS container?

    <p> tags aren’t allowed in <p>, so the browser is just splitting the markup into 4 <p> make #quotebox a div instead
