in reply to Re: (OT) CSS Codes
in thread (OT) CSS Codes

HTML markup ought to be used for semantics1, and CSS for presentation (and hence, there's generally2 no translation from one to the other)

Something of a strange thing to say, and only makes sense if you ignore the entire history of HTML.

HTML has a <font> element. For many years, in HTML 1, 2 and 3 it was used to set fonts. Now it's deprecated in HTML 4, but it still works and you can translate between the font tag and a CSS font declaration perfectly well.
