Only noticed this in www.stackoverflow.com at the moment, not sure about meta,superuser,or serverfault.

When using Stylish in Firefox or Chrome Stylist in Chrome there is no way to apply a style to your answer to a question to make it different from the rest of the answers. Can it be given a class name 'your-answer' perhaps instead of the inline 'style="background-color: #FFFFFF;" I use a dark theme style and the white background washes out the light text color.

Or does anyone know of a way to apply a CSS style to your accepted answer the way the markup is now?

    Now this is a feature request. Nice find, David. – Welbog Jan 8 '10 at 16:30
  • I have found other things like this I just can't remember what they are at the moment. – David Jan 8 '10 at 16:53

  • There's a Greasemonkey script that's related: userscripts.org/scripts/show/65919 – micahwittman Jan 8 '10 at 17:43
  • without some ingenious greasemonkey, there would have to be a mass change – Brian Jan 8 '10 at 20:27
  • Is there enough energy for a mass change? – Rosinante Jan 8 '10 at 23:27

    Why would this result in a 'mass' change. Find the code that set's "style='backgroundcolor: #FFFFFF;" to add the 'your-answer' class along side the 'accepted-answer' class and make the css class and voila, d.o.n.e. I wonder why it was done the way it is in the first place. I hope I'm not being naive. – David Jan 10 '10 at 0:08

I am not seeing any inline background color styles on questions now, so I think we fixed this somewhere along the way.

    @pi look man, I just randomly type things and press F5 then "deploy". What do you want from me? – Jeff Atwood Feb 4 '10 at 6:52

    What I want from you? Hmmm... Can I choose anything? Will you grant me 3 wishes? Change the number of letters to 2 for @replies so I can see when someone's replying (didn't see that one coming, did you?) – alex Feb 4 '10 at 7:00

    @Jeff Atwood I considered pie. Mmmm, pie. Actually, I considered that. Might go back to it. Would I be notified if somebody writes @3.14? Doesnt't the . break the @replies? – alex Feb 4 '10 at 8:16
  • Verified. Seems the new questions are okay, the old ones seem to still have an inline (no big deal). #2344098 has the inline whereas new ones don't for example. – David Aug 9 '10 at 15:02
