Thanks and Regards,

Without reviewing your change, I would take issue with the accessibility tools that treat inline style elements as headers. I will update the issue in JIRA.

As I understand it, it is against WCAG to use styles to simulate headers, so can you please provide a reference that justifies that <strong> and <i> should be interpreted as headers. In particular, what if these inline elements are embedded within a larger block element, such as a paragraph?

Hi Jon ,

Agree with you on that we should not use styles to simulate headers . Accessibility test tools should not interpret inline <strong> tags in a paragraph as a header and show that as a possible violation. People do not put headers inside paragraphs. However, according to G140 and F2 rules, it is better to use CSS for font styling that to use styling tags.

So here we are simply trying to move font styling into the CSS (according tohttp://www.w3.org/TR/2012/NOTE-WCAG20-TECHS-20120103/F2.html <http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/NOTE-WCAG20-TECHS-20120103/F2.html> and *http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/NOTE-WCAG20-TECHS-20120103/G140*) .
