Semantic tags adding css styles?

[krubens (Kjell Ruben)]

Hi,
I just read this article: https://webflow.com/blog/html5-semantic-elements-and-webflow-the-essential-guide

And it was very interesting. So I started tagging. But I notice something. When I used the Address tag, the text got Italic.
And when I used the Figure tag the div with the image got a bottom margin or something. It moved up.

Is this normal? Why is the CSS changed when we add a tag?

Browsers have a default implementation, which you can always override with your own styles

HTML address tag

HTML figure Tag

Hmm… Thats crazy.
I understand I can override it, but why even…?
Why should every address on the interweb be italic?

anyway, thank you @samliew

Built-in solution for fixing the italics which come with using the "Address" tag

This is a follow-up wish of this thread: http://forum.webflow.com/t/does-the-address-tag-always-make-the-fonts-italic/28636 It’d be convenient if Webflow comes with a solution which automatically fixes the italics styling which comes as an effect of setting an “Adress” tag to a div.
