I have this in header:
<style>
.bold {font-weight: bold;}
</style>

And then in body...
<span class="bold">Lol</span>

Why isn't that bolded?

Since we don't have the benefit of the "whole picture" I would suggest there is something else affecting your styling. By that I mean in the context you posted it should work, and it does, in the "whole picture" below. :-) Have you got your browser text size set too small? Bold won't apply when the text goes beyond a certain point.
