I don't remember what your problem is. But something strikes me
right off: somewhere I read to use "id" sparingly.
I don't use it at all when I'm just applying a style to text.
You can do all the same stuff with classes.
Another thing you are doing that seems odd is sticking markup <i>
into something that is already in a CSS declaration.
You have to remember that a lot of the point to CSS is the separating
presentation from content & not using markup to format text. You
format your text in the style declaration & let the non CSS browsers
default according to your structural tags.
If you need this much control/formatting, you might consider just
giving in and using a graphic instead. Just use "alt" text along
with it.
