I think that's right. So how about the following change... OLD The use of structural elements is NOT RECOMMENDED where presentational styles are desired, which is why very few structural elements are specified herein. Implementations SHOULD use appropriate 'style' attributes (e.g., <span style='font-weight: bold'>this is bold</span> and <p style='margin-left: 5%'>this is indented</p>) rather than XHTML structural elements (e.g., <strong/> and <blockquote/>) wherever possible. NEW Where strictly presentational style are desired (e.g., colored text), it might be necessary to use use 'style' attributes (e.g., <span style='font-color: green'>this is green</span>). However, where possible it is instead RECOMMENDED to use appropriate structural elements (e.g., <strong/> and <blockquote/> instead of, say, style='font-weight: bold' or style='margin-left: 5%').
