[thelist] Combine CLASS attribute + STYLE attibute

[aardvark]

what he said... one additional note... instead of using the <span> 
tag, try to find some valid HTML tag that implies true structure 
instead... define a style for it, class it, insert inline styles, however 
you want to do it, but using HTML that has structure is not only 
easier to modify, but works better across all sorts of 
devices/browsers (i'm thinking of browsers for the disabled and 
such)...

many folks here know of my anti-<span> stance... i will always use 
a structural tag and style that, or use the container...

for instance, when displaying an order number on a receipt, i could 
do:

Your order number is <span style="color:#ff0000;">6</span>

or i could try:

Your order number is <strong style="color:#ff0000;">6</strong>

but then, i've found i only tend to style elements when they stand 
out for a reason other than just eye candy, so i've got a different 
perspective on that...
