"Stay away from Strong. Strong is presentational, same as B, and I.
Presentation
should be in HTML and content in HTML.
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 strength of content rather
than a default appearance in a bowser, cf with the <address> tag
which indicates an address, even though browser default appearance is
italicised.
I would also add that I believe assistive technologies such as screen
readers interpret <strong> where as they would ignore a <span>.
Therefore use of the HTML element strong has semantic meaning which
should not be dismissed.
