<strong class="foo">text</strong>

allowed?

I have assigned new weight values to strong without any problem and it always validated. Not sure how correct it is though.

I believe you can assign a class to ANY tag. Apart from <html>, <head> and anything in it.

No problem at all. Just don't forget the semantics of the

strong

in terms of usage (ie. don't use it for text which should not be emphasized). You can, however, style it how you want.

Excellent, thanks.
