Sorry, I've been away for a while and lost track of this, thanks to
everyone for your comments. I think what you have said is right in
that perhaps the intro text doesn't really have any semantic value, so
there doesn't need to be any tag to match it.
Thanks again for all your replies.

OK, thanks for your help, I just thought there may be some kind of
HTML tag that adds seperate semantic value to the introductory
paragraph, to differentiate it from the strong text in the body, like
the big tag for example.
I will probably use the strong tag then.
Cheers

Stay away from Strong. Strong is presentational, same as B, and I.

use span class=important for text that needs to be emphasised.

I would argue to the contrary. Strong has much more meaning than a span
class. The word /tag itself implies

It all depends on the person using it. I have seen alot of people use strong
to bold general peices of text. There is
a big difference in making text bold and empasising its meaning.
If the use for stong is a valid use, then i wont disagree. I must have

I think the problem with using strong to demarcate your introduction
isn't that strong is presentational (it's not) but rather that it does
nothing to express what's different semantically about an introduction.

Using the title attribute means pointing-device-users would get a
tooltip saying introduction obscuring the text if they happened to
have the cursor hovering over
levels as low as 4x, given that magnifier users also tend to use 800x600
resolution.

Of course, if you are referring to a GROUP of paragraphs
constituting the introduction, then Paul's class would have to be used.
Hi all,
Just marking up a page, the layout seems to require various tags, as
far as I can gather, I need seperate tags for:
- The intro heading (a H2)
- The orange intro text (not sure what tag to add here)
- a smaller, bold heading, same size as body text (probably a h3)
- a quote (probably a

Hi,
If the choice of the colour orange is to add emphasis to this text, the
