I believe the only time you use style within the body tag is when sending
html emails. At work, we create html emails like so:
<html>
<body>
<style type="text/css">
<!---
style {foo:bar;}
-->
</style>
<h1>header</h1>
<p>paragrah text</p>
</body>
</html>
Then we use an online app to send the html emails out.
ciao,
Zulema
