[EHPweb] 3rd Party Sites

Can we use a CSS rule to match link urls instead of JavaScript?

a[href^="http"]:after {
     content: "*";
}
a[href^="http://earthquake.usgs.gov"]:after, a[href^="https://sslearthquake.usgs.gov 
"]:after, a[href^="http://neic.usgs.gov"]:after, a[href^="http://www.usgs.gov 
"]:after, a[href^="http://www.doi.gov"]:after, a[href^="http://www.nehrp.gov 
"]:after {
     content: "";
}


Or, like Seth mentioned the offsite classname?  The offsite class is  
used throughout the landslides.usgs.gov site and the icon is added  
using css.
