Will this css (text bacground color) work well?

Any problems will highlighting text this way?

Here is the code:

.compromise {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 13px;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
color: #333333;
text-decoration: underline;
background-color: #FFFFCC;
}

 

works ok in IE and FireFox

 

If it is only a little bit of text I would style a span for it. But if you are doing all the same text inside the div that will work.
