i just been informed that P & Hn Elements are Inline Element. How Come?
how can those elements be inline, and the user-agent render them as
Block-level elements?

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/text.html#edef-P
this information shocked the ground im standing on.
You wouldn't be shocked if you read the DTD properly. I'm assuming that
this is what you're referring to:
<!ELEMENT (%heading;) - - (%inline;)* -- heading -->
<!ELEMENT P - O (%inline;)* -- paragraph -->
the (%inline;)* part refers to the type of elements that the H and P
*are allowed to contain*, and does NOT refer to the H and P themselves.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/sgml/dtd.html#block defines what elements
are block level, and you'll see that %headings is listed there. So
unshock yourself, all is as it should be...
