In almost any case there won't be a visible difference in graphical browsers. Midas is able to switch between <span style="..."> (which seems to be the default) and <i>/<b>. I'd like to suggest to allow to choose between <em>/<strong> (which should be used by default) and <span...>. All versions must be understood. By the way, MSIE uses <strong> and <em>, and Mozilla is not able to understand this (better, and recommended) coding. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to the Midas Demo page 2. check "View HTML Source" 3. enter "<em>Any Text</em> 4. uncheck "View HTML Source" 5. mark your text (shown italic) 6. click on the "italic" button. Actual Results: The text isn't changed Expected Results: The <em> tag should have been removed. Likewise, when text is marked italic, the <em> tag should be used
