Why does it work as I expected if the tag is not self closing? If it's forced outside the behaviour should be identical in either case. I'll go read up on what the span tag is supposed to do. It seems valid to me that if I wanted to apply format attributes to a bunch of elements I could surround it with a span. I'm really begginning to think I should go back to assembler programming. It was simpler.
