Alert Snippets
Snippets from the "Alerts" category let you create highlighted alert text.
1. Select the 'Alerts' category
2. Select the 'Alert Type' you need
Because snippets include extra html you must take care when using them. The wysiwyg editor will sometimes delete html that it thinks you don't "need." One way to ensure the extra html stays intact is to paste your content after the word "Content" and then delete the word content. If you try to delete the word "Content" first you run the risk of the editor thinking you don't need the surrounding html.
