How to inject proper page styling, with indented chapters, with jQuery and CSS
A friend of mine had an issue with a Drupal theme page, where he could not change the HTML structure to fit his needs with the indented chapter styling. He got it fixed initially by using CSS selectors that increased in size for each chapter, a method that "worked", but was not very efficient.
