Hi,
I have a headline styled as an H2, like so:

Would it make more sense to style a sub-headline as an h3 or as a

I was thinking this made sense:
h2Headline for main story/h2
h3This is the subhead for the main story/h3
Thoughts? :)

Hi!
I wanted to implement the Tweetmeme button on some pages of my site
http://www.seoworkers.com which pages I served as XML
(application/xhtml+xml) for Mozilla based browsers (not for IE), and does
not work.
Just out of curiosity, why did you choose to serve the pages as XML?

Has anyone come across this issue before? (and better yet, come across a
fix??)
Not sure if this will help, but I suggest using a div instead of an href:

I have not used named anchors in ages.
Hope you get it figured!
