Hi Grant
As html 5 new tag are not supported to the IE7 and older version as well. For your query regard the use of <p class-“Header”> I preferred to use <div> instead of the <p> tag. <p> tag has his own value for the margin… and this will difficult to maintain the same space in IE and firefox.

HTML 4.x Hello, Could someone please clarify this for me. I realise that HTML5 has introduced new semantic elements such as <header>, <aside> etc., but does this really increase the expressive power of the markup? Can't the same thing be achieved in HTML 4.x using classes (e.g. <p class="header">)? I am reluctant to move to HTML5 due to the issue of backwards compatibility. I would be grateful for any replies.
