Umm. Wouldn't the <cite> element be more semantic?
To bring this back to CSS, I have noticed that most browsers style
<cite> with italics, but I came across at least one that did not. (Can't
remember which.)
So I suggest adding this rule to your style sheet:
cite { font-style: italic; }
Cordially,
David
