Hi

I've recently done a very basic site for a friend and for some reason Explorer / Firefox etc is ignoring the Stylesheet as far as I can tell regarding the rendering of text. I have no idea why...

Have a look at:

<snip>

The Text should not be in BOLD. It should just be normal.

Any ideas?

Sounds like a fairly simple CSS fix - maybe new class or a span. If the text is in bold, but should be normal, there is a declaration interfering - or a declaration not made that should be. It is not bold by accident. You will want to identify where it is coming from, and then select from the potential fixes.

My recommendation is to strip the HTML and CSS down to the problem itself. If the fix is not found during this process, post the test ready code that replicates the problem and we will look at the options.

Also try validating your CSS and html.

Thanks guys - I went back to validate (completely forgot to do it with this site...) and yip - 9 errors and some more warnings.

Forced me to go look up some code (I'm a newbie at this...) and hopefully fixed it. Will check later this afternoon. At least now when I validate it doesn't give anymore errors so fingers crossed when I upload!
