I agreed with most of what you say, but I wonder if this is bound to Universal Design/Accessibility, or just to CSS good design guidelines, which is related, I understand, but is getting a little far fetched in terms of what we're asking author to do. > * Use DIV and SPAN *only after* you run out of HTML meaning- > carrying elements. If you want to strongly emphasize text > use the STRONG element and assign styles to it, rather than > using SPAN. Better wording: "Instead of using DIV and SPAN elements to add style, try subclassing existing HTML elements though the CLASS attribute. For example, if you want to stronly emphasize a text, use the EM element with CLASS set to (say) "extra" instead of using SPAN."
