I'm afraid the short answer is no, the combinations of inline styles and elements like <em> <b> <u> it produces can vary depending on the browser you enter the content in. I find the best way to deal with it is to try and teach the client to use it to add semantic meaning (not in those words) so things like headings and paragraphs etc... and I handle the element styling in the main CSS file. Works fairly well and it's easier to keep things at least slightly consistent. I also nag the programmers here about it all the time so they're looking into xStandard which produces MUCH nicer code and CSS. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. If I ever work out how to do it with a reset I'll let you know. I guess you could try styling all your elements relative to their container so everything else (i.e. FCKin editor's output) has the browsers default styling, it's not ideal though. Good Luck...
