A Touch of Class

Great article on the overuse of the class attribute within XHTML.

tantek/log/2002/12 Does this mean you should avoid the class attribute altogether? Absolutely not. However, it does mean that before using the class attribute, you should first pick the most semantically specific tag for the job (hint: div and span should be last resorts), and then, and only then, optionally specify a class to denote additional subsemantics.
