Re: Formatting Objects considered harmful

I dont understand this debate at all. What is the difference in
harmfulness between

<span style="display: block; font-size; 12pt; font-family: Verdana">Some
text</span>

and

<fo:block font-size="12pt" font-family="Verdana">Some text</span>

?

CSS+HTML has just as much potential for abuse as XSL FOs.  Any
stylesheet language that provides an inline style mechanism has the
potential for abuse: it allows you to use inline style instead of
semantically meaningful markup.
