Hi

D*** you guys are good. When I grow up, I'm 38, I want to be just like you ;) Thanks, I understand.

As I started this thread I'm unsure how or why this is necessary,
would you elaborate?

Mordechai (if I can presume to speak for him!) is suggesting that putting an em tag entirely around a block level element (the dd) is not very semantic and a class on the containing dd is more so. I'm inclined to agree. While <div>lorem ipsum dolor <em>sit amet</em> consectetur</div> would appear to have meaning <div><em>lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur</em></div> would appear a little redundant. <div class="something">lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur</div> is better.
