 If emacs-w3m doesn't parse the html, how does it
identify the simple
bold text, as it does now...

 Or is that done by the external w3m?

 If so, why doesn't the external w3m recognize
italics? 

 I mean, why can't italics be done the same way as the
simple bold is
shown?

 So if I need a feature, I have to chip in the code?
;-)

 Thanks.
