That may be what editors or word >processors call them. They're block-element styles. e.g. first-line-indent is conceptually (in most user's perspective) for paragraphs, even if the spec is broader. My conceptual point is nothing is used consistently on the web. That doesn't seem to stop the W3C from defining the standards for them. The standards are a goal to shoot for. I see no reason, sentence parsers could not be a goal. Even simple things such as white-space:... aren't supported every where, yet W3C is not standing still waiting... I'd really like this to be my last reply. I have other threads to respond to and other work to do. So if any one makes another clever point and I do not respond, it means I may have a clever response but did not send it. Thanks to all for documenting the issue with your discussion. I hope this serves as a resource for others, when searched from Google. -Shelby Moore
