From: Jukka K. Korpela
There are many potential formatting problems with text appearing in an
italic font (or in a slanted font, or as algorithmically slanted). There is
little reason that the use of <i> markup, as opposite to CSS ways, would be
relevant, though. If there were such situations, the issue would be
off-topic for this list, which is about CSS, not HTML.




Thanks for your thoughts Yucca. The point of my post was that of this tag
interacting with my CSS. I should have been specific. I was seeking a CSS
guy's help.
