  You snipped my example. The "cascading" part applies
there. First is the CSS file. Then that's overridden by
CSS in the STYLE tag of the page. Then that can be
overridden by a STYLE attribute in the HTML tag. If
you want pretty fonts for your XML that's up to you,
but CSS is still deeply entagled with HTML. To not
recognize that when writing webpages is to not know
how to use it properly.

  I know many people ar sticklers about keeping the CSS
and HTML separate, but in practice it just doesn't work
that way.
