It would take a lot of styling to get existing html tags to do what <details> and <summary> do. Also those styles would apply only to what I see, not what everyone else sees. If I remember correctly, the style attribute, and maybe even the class attribute, has been disabled. So, how would you suggest that I get the <div> or <p> tags to act like <details> and <summary> for everyone who reads what I post? Also, <details> and <summary> are semantic whereas styled <div> or <p> tags are not.

So, sure, I could add styles to my personal css here on PerlMonks, but would those styles be copied to everyone elses' css too? Would you add those styles to your css? Would the styles even work?

I do not see how this would create a problem.

My OS is Debian 10 (Buster); my perl version is 5.28.1.

No matter how hysterical I get, my problems are not time sensitive. So, relax, have a cookie, and a very nice day!

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
