According to the W3C, 'em' indicates emphasis while 'strong' indicates stronger emphasis. "The presentation of phrase elements depends on the user agent." It does go on to say that "Generally, visual user agents present EM text in italics and STRONG text in bold font." However, the W3C says exactly what I say - that <em> and <strong> tags signify emphasis, but it's up to a CSS file to define how that emphasis is visually displayed.

Guilty. Will be careful from now on.
