you're not supposed to have spaces between the element and the pseudo-element, like here in your
.css:
> .bxbodytx :first-letter { font-size: 2em; float: left; padding: 0 .2em 0 .2em; margin-right: .2em;
}

> .bxbodytx :first-line { font-weight: bold; text-decoration:none;}
make it look like this, and it works:
> .bxbodytx:first-letter { font-size: 2em; float: left; padding: 0 .2em 0 .2em; margin-right: .2em;
}
>
> .bxbodytx:first-line { font-weight: bold; text-decoration:none;}
have a look at this:
