I

The I element renders italic text. It is possible to achieve a richer style through the use of Style Sheets. It is most certainly easier; takes far less typing, (typing the markup once as compared to adding it to each element), and it's much easier to read your content without the elements and attributes cluttering things up. As an added bonus, with CSS you can add a background color to your text that is different from the document background color. Consider the following examples:

	
<P>	
 <B><I>
 <FONT 	FACE	= "Arial"
	SIZE	= "-1"
	COLOR	= "#0000FF"
	>
 Bold, Blue, Arial Italicized
 text sized to -1 smaller
 than the default text.
 </FONT></I></B>

Bold, Blue, Italic text sized to -1 smaller than the default text.

<STYLE TYPE="text/css">

P {	font-family	: Arial;
	font-style	: italic;
	font-size	: smaller;
	font-weight	: 600;
	color   	: blue;
	background	: yellow;
 }
</STYLE>
<P>
Bold, Blue, Arial Italicized
text sized to -1 smaller
than the default text.

	color   	: blue;
	background	: yellow">
