<del> is a semantic markup tag. Though some UAs may choose to rendering
it using strike-through, that neither means that it is an appropriate
replacement for strike-through, or that it should/will always be
rendered as such.
del { text-decoration:strike-through }
is just as valid as
del { color:red; font-weight:bold; font-style:italic }
