your page is working now .. the colour is changed and correct style attribute is been applied .. i guess uploading the new HTMLarea fixed the problem.

i looked on the net didn't find why this happened.. also , htmlarea no longer being supported by the author nor will be in zc version 2.0

No what happened was, client was writing in word copy /paste into HTML area. So I am taking the current <font> formatting then re applying formatting using HTML area. This now has fixed it....you thing clients tell you what they do ..:-)

Thanks for looking into it and for your time

lucky me , i don't work with any client.. i only installed one live zencart for family member and told him to buy the book which he did and thats all.

Note about external vs. inline styling -
Inline styling always takes precedence over external (stylesheet) styling, unless the stylesheet property is labeled "!important". So as you have seen, that was not the cause of the missing styling.
If you have a non-tech-savvy user creating descriptions with styling, the inline method is really the only practical way. It's bad practice for anybody professionally maintaining a website.

MS proprietary code strikes again! They think everybody should read things the way they format them...
