Attributes
Description
An emphasis
element indicates that certain text
should be stressed in some way. This pattern defines the
emphasis
element with a very limited content
model.
Processing expectations
Formatted inline. Emphasized text is traditionally presented in
italics or boldface. A role
attribute of bold
or strong
is
often used to generate boldface, if italics is the default
presentation.
An emphasis
is often used wherever its
typographic presentation is desired, even when other markup might
theoretically be more appropriate.
