Need Help??

span is just like <div style=display:inline>. A quite useless tag that many HTML designers don't even know existed.

Not useless. (caveat untested code) Say you have a css: `Warning.*{ color=#YELLOW }` [download] and you code in your html `print "<SPAN CLASS="WARNING">"My warning</SPAN>";` [download] all over the place, and then your phb says "make the warning section have a blue backround", all you have to do is update your css and then with no code change to current code base and a simple one line update to the css you're done!

Or: `EM.Warning{ color=#YELLOW; font-weight:normal; font-style:normal; }` `print q(<em class="Warning">My Warning</em>);` Because obviously a warning is a kind of emphasis...	[reply]
