This one is exactly what I was trying to say, with the arguments in a
more semantic/XHTML/structural vein.
Thanks for all the links.

I filter on the [WSG] in the subject line and would suggest that if you
want to add other categories, it be done by adding to the [WSG]. For
example, [WSG][CSS] subject,or [WSG] - CSS - subject.

Option A is completely acceptable, and is actually very close to a W3C
example:
Another application of DL, for example, is for marking up dialogues, with
each DT naming a speaker, and each DD containing his or her words.

I believe Calendars would be a great use of floats, just set a height

cascading day based calendar.

I assume you mean "tables or lists" rather than" tables or CSS"? Whether you
use tables or lists you should probably be using CSS in some form to control

Calendars and events (with dates and venue) or even for e.g. certain

The answer is that the second rule has more "specificity". Before you added
