It's nice, and valid, but in this case "valid" doesn't mean clean.
This is what I just came up with when playing with it: ------- Th<span style="font-family: times new roman;">is i</span>s <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">so<span style="font-family: comic sans ms;">m</span>e</span> <strong>s<span style="font-family: courier new;">am</span><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="font-family: courier new;">p</span>l</span>e t<span style="font-family: verdana;">ext</span></strong><span style="font-family: verdana;">. You are using </span><a style="font-family: verdana;" href="http://www.fckeditor.net/";>FCKeditor</a><span style="font-family: verdana;">.<br/></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">It's a pity about the span tags being used as liberally as font tags used to be. It might be valid, but that doesn't make it nice...</span><br type="_moz"/><span style="font-family: verdana;"/></div> --------- That used to be: ---------- This is some sample text. You are using FCKeditor. It's a pity about the span tags being used as liberally as font tags used to be. It might be valid, but that doesn't make it nice... --------- and then I started clicking formatting buttons. Yeah, it's about the user, but that doesn't make it any better... I know that if some clients were given that much choice, they'd exercise it. Valid? Yes. Good? Hmmmmmm... Does anyone know how easy it is to lock FCKeditor (heh, always seems like typing an expletive, hey?) down so going crazy with colours or fonts isn't an option? It's probably really simple, but I haven't tried... thought I'd ask here to see if anyone else had experience, before I go wasting time...
