I'm actually doing that right now. I agree that it's a little bit of a stretch, but I think a case can be made for it. The question in how to identify the speaker in the <dd> And I'm leaning toward span for the same reason. My code looks something like: <dl class="qanda"> <dt>Question?</dt> <dd> <p><span>Person 1:</span>answer</p> <p><span>Person 2:</span>answer</p> </dd> </dl> > You could use a CSS background image for "Q" and "A": > dt { font-weight: bold; background-image: url(path/to/Q.gif); } > dd { background-image: url(path/to/A.gif); } > That only works for the Q: and A:, but not the Kirsten and Neal that started the problem in the first place. ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
