Eve'nin' Jakob--

<snip>
This an advanced and tricky question about CSS: How do I
mark (different
font <face|size|color|weight|style>) words in a line
*_without_*
making use of <DIV>, <P> and <FONT>? AFAIK forces <DIV>
browsers
breaking lines.
</snip>

Most tags are "block level" tags which have line breaks
built into
the (perceived) closing of the tag. To alter text style
within a
line, use the SPAN tag. Using your example:

<P>This is my text, <I><SPAN STYLE="color:
red>"which</SPAN<I> displays
in a single line.</P>

You will note that I did not include the italics attribute
inside
the span tag. I generally dont include font attributes which
are
in-line rather than  block-level attributes.

Good Luck!
