Would any talented html monkey out there have an easy cross-browser CSS solution for pull-quotes? I'm having a mare trying to sort it!
Alternatively, feel free to point, laugh and insult me.

Not helpful. There's hundreds of solutions via google. I want one that's proven and tested and I can poke someone if I can't get it working.

I don't use CSS an awful lot but this looks like it'd be fairly simple. Can't see any browser compatibility problems, it's all pretty standard.
Have you tried using any of the solutions via Google and seeing what they do?
Or are you just hoping someone'll do it for you? :P
Edit: I don't have Dreamweaver on this machine and am too lazy to switch to the other one, but have just been informed it should be able to do it in a WYSIWYG stylee.

I want to do it in CSS so I don't have to go round changing every page in the event of a redesign. I use the internet exclusively on my phone so I can't specifically copy and paste stuff to the code on my computer. So, instead of writing all the stuff out and finding it wanting, I was hoping someone'd go 'Hereyar!'
So yeah, just being lazy probably :)

and be slightly more helpful.

The jist is: Put your stuff in a block element, float it right, then margin etc to push it to where you want and a background image for some fancy quotes.
If you're good, you can do this with any element. Edit the site and add 'class="pullquote"' to all the elements you want and mark them up later.

I'll try it later once I've worked out whether Matrix: Path of Neo is shit or actually worth playing through.
