Hi all,
Just marking up a page, the layout seems to require various tags, as
far as I can gather, I need seperate tags for:
- The intro heading (a <H2>)
- The orange intro text (not sure what tag to add here)
- a smaller, bold heading, same size as body text (probably a <h3>)
- a quote (probably a <blockquote> tag)
My question is, what would be the best semantic tags to use here, that
will be picked up by assistive technology and validate for XHTML 1.0
Transitional. In particular, I want to know about the Orange intro
text and the quote.
Any suggestions would be great, I have posted a JPEG here:

Assuming the page on which this will appear already has an <h1>:
<h2>...</h2>
<p class="introduction">...</p>
<h3>...<h3>
<p>...</p>
<blockquote><p>...</p></blockquote>
<p>...</p>
and then apply things like the different font sizes & weights,
colours and spacing with CSS.
If there will only ever be one introductory paragraph per page, then
you could use <p id="introduction"> instead.
HTH,
Nick,
