[Orgmode] Re: How to distinguish timestamps in CSS?

Hi all,

Thanks Christian for info about this "plus" selection -- I totally ignored it.
Thanks for enlightening me.

I guess that'd be the way to go. In fact, I envision more than a color
background: I'd wanna use an image background. Something like:

    ,----------------,
    | DEADLINE       |
    |----------------|
    | 2010-11-15 Mon |
    `----------------'

just below the heading.

Working a bit more on my CSS (that should become a PROP for Worg3.css), I
envision as well a nicer "calendar icon" for the dates (a priori, inactive
timestamps telling when the meeting took place or when the note was taken):

      ,------,
      | Mon  |
      |------|
      | Nov  |
      |  15  | (in bigger size)
      | 2010 |
      `------'

That could be placed on the left, in the margin, for example.

But, to be able to do such a thing, we would even need the different
components to be selectable:

- year
- month
- day
- day name

Best regards,
  Seb
