I expect that there is none and I'll just have to create a <div> class or something.

Am I right?

I hope you're sitting down...

<q>the quote</q>

blockquote ?

Only if it's block-level. If it's inline, then simply <q> ...

[temhawk]

With block-level you mean q { display : block ; } or are you referring to a tag?

[marcamos]

If the quote is block-level, you then use the <blockquote> element. If the quote is inline, you then use the <q> element. Here's an example:

<blockquote>
<p>Words and more words, this is all quoted text from someone other than the author of this web page. Words and more words, this is all quoted text from someone other than the author of this web page.</p>
<p>Words and more words, this is all quoted text from someone other than the author of this web page. Words and more words, this is all quoted text from someone other than the author of this web page.</p>
<p>Words and more words, this is all quoted text from someone other than the author of this web page. Words and more words, this is all quoted text from someone other than the author of this web page.</p>
</blockquote>

or

<p>I am the author of this web page, but I have a friend who once told me, <q>You are crazy!</q> I told him that I wan not crazy.</p>

[temhawk]

Oh, I see. Wasn't aware of <blockquote>'s existence.

Does this mean <q>whatever</q> not inside a <p> element is invalid?

[marcamos]

Not really. The sentence itself should be in some block-level element, regardless of the existence of the <q> element. Such as a <p>, a <li>, etc.

Aight, thanks again!
