					<td valign="top" colspan="2" class="description"><p>The <span class="literal">i</span> elementone of several font style
elements in HTML 4renders its content in an italic version of
the font face governing the next outermost HTML container. You can
nest multiple font style elements to create combined styles, such as
bold italic (<span class="literal">&lt;B&gt;&lt;I&gt;bold-italic</span>
<span class="literal">text&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/B&gt;</span>).
</p><p>It is up to the browser to italicize a system font or perhaps load an
italic version of the currently specified font. If you are striving
for font perfection, it is best to use style sheets (and perhaps
downloadable fonts) to specify a true italic font family, rather than
risk the browser's extrapolation of an italic face
from a system font.
</p><p>You can take advantage of the containerness of this element by
assigning style sheet rules to some or all <span class="literal">i</span>
elements in a page. For example, you may wish all
<span class="literal">i</span> elements to be in a red color. By assigning the
style rule <span class="literal">i{color:red}</span>, you can apply the color
to all elements with only a tiny bit of code.
</p><p>Although this element is not deprecated in HTML 4, it would not be
surprising to see it lose favor to the <span class="literal">font-style</span>
style sheet attribute in the future.
