I'm having a small problem.

I have a sentence that is coded like this : Gram called at five in the morning. She never remembered which looks like this

Gram called at five in the morning. She never remembered the time difference.

I don't like the fact that the first letter is not italics. It looks funny. I also wanted the first letter to be a drop cap. So I changed the code to this :

<big class='libprs500_dropcaps'>G</big>ram called at five in the morning. She never remembered

The result looks fine in a browser, but doesn't convert well. The result is the first letter is in italics and drop-capped, but the rest of the sentence looses the italics.

It looks like this

G ram called at five in the morning.
