Categories Dressing

[limelites]

/*example for individual category as bg image*/
#categories li a.catBg2 {
    background-image: url(../images/zacatek.gif);
    height: 30px;
    }

#categories li a.catBg2:hover {
    background-image: url(../images/catbg25hover.gif);
    }
	
/*example for custom individual category styling*/
#categories li.promuze a {
    border-top: 3px dotted #112233; 
    background-color: #aabbff; 
    color: #000000; 
    padding: 1em 0em;
    } 
    
    .promuze {
    border-top: 1px dotted #112233; 
    color: #000000; 
    background-image: url(../images/zacatek.gif);
    }

ul#catGroup2 {
	background-image: url(../images/zacatek.gif);
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	}

I am trying something along these lines but not as complex. I simply want the top level categories to appear in bold type font so that they stand out a little more.

I have tried to follow what appears simple code:

tpl_categories.php:

      case ($box_categories_array[$i]['path'] == 'cPath=1'):
        $new_style = 'holiday';
        break; 

stylesheet_categories_dressing.css:

/*example for custom individual category styling*/
#categories li.cat-holiday a {
    border-top: 3px dotted #112233; 
    background-color: #aabbff; 
    color: #112233; 
    padding: 1em 0em;
    } 

I would of course manipulate the css to simply bold type case if I could get it to work at all. When I upload this content it seems to have no effect whatsoever.

Can anyone see where I'm going wrong?
