How do you style your inner <P> text?

Actualy, they haven't changed since html 4.
Read all about it here:
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/index/elements.html>

A small summary of the important inline elements:

Semantic elements
===================
em           : Indicates emphasis.
strong       : Indicates stronger emphasis.
cite         : Contains a citation or a reference to other sources.
dfn          : Indicates that this is the defining instance of the
               enclosed term.
code         : Designates a fragment of computer code.
samp         : Designates sample output from programs, scripts, etc.
kbd          : Indicates text to be entered by the user.
var          : Indicates an instance of a variable or program argument.
abbr         : Indicates an abbreviated form (e.g., WWW, HTTP, URI,
               Mass., etc.).
acronym      : Indicates an acronym (e.g., WAC, radar, etc.).


Visual elements ================= tt : Renders as teletype or monospaced text. i : Renders as italic text style. b : Renders as bold text style. big : Renders text in a "large" font. small : Renders text in a "small" font. strike and s : *Deprecated*. Render strike-through style text. u : *Deprecated*. Renders underlined text.

Strike, s and u are the only deprecated ones.
Use the right element/tag for the job at hand.
