div classes when using browser-based editing tool

There isn't a way to override the neutering of the tags by the WYSIWYG
editor without switching to the HTML mode.

Subject: div classes when using browser-based editing tool

I'm trying to sort out how to let editors specify classes for divs (so that
they can put text into a box with a colored background, for
instance) when using the browser-based editing tool. All of the < and  >
characters get neutered, of course. Switching to HTML editing mode works, of
course, but it's too difficult for some editors to make sense of what to
change there.

I want editors to be able to type in <div class="greenbox">Here's my
text</div> and have that work when they are using the built-in editor. I
would set up a .greenbox class in the CSS configuration.

Am I missing a setting somewhere that I should change?

thanks

Bob
