Web pages are made up of block elements like div, hx (x being 1-6 like you would use on a outline, remember those?), p, tables and lists. Inline elements like table headers/data cells and span. Mixed together you get a structured document that should make sense if you look at it like that outline

Thank you all for a fascinating discussion. I was early aware of the H value in SEs but hadn't appreciated the structure points. Poems will mainly appear on their own pages so h1 is going to be right for the title; class or ID will be needed because I use a distinct heading style and IE, Opera

Joseph, Padding/margin won't work when you use position absolute. You need to either allow for the space you want in your px placement settings or not use position absolute. I took a stab at what I think you are trying to do at http://wizerways.net/joseph could probably do better if I had some cl

Depends on where and why you are using font. By all means specify the default in You body definition but Joseph may want a different font for his poems or even: just a few words in a poem. For the whole poem the div method works well but for a few words is the correct method instead of font.
