making categories bold

Hi. i was wondering if anyone knows how to make the categories appear in Bold but without making the sub categories bold aswell?
i tried adding "<b>category</b>" from the admin in the edit category option
but it shows the <B> </B> at the top of internet explorer which looks kinda lame.

also i was wondering how i could make my sub categories open when the main page loads instead of having to click the main category to view the subs

thanks for any help

In your stylesheet, add:

a.category-top {font-weight: bold;}

ahh my hero. thanks

any idea on the second question?

There are a few contributions for older versions of Zen Cart that treat the categories sidebox differently. You might want to hunt around, searching for things like these: category tree expanded always open
