Thanks, Richard, that's not a bad solution, at least in terms of minimal impact on the markup. I suppose if we knew XSLT, we could have the CMS automatically adjust the markup to add the parts to it. Unfortunately, as it is now, the CMS' editor doesn't support adding div tags except in Code View, and we're doing our level best to keep our content creators away from Code View.
