How do i stop this text being bold?

Hi,

Well, the question sounds easy enough but, no matter what I try, it doesn't work!

If you look at my homepage in Internet explorer in the 'browse' box all the text is bold. I don't want this. Look at it in Mozilla and the text isn't bold!!!

Any idea how I can stop the text appearing in bold on explorer?

Many thanks,

Gary :smile:

H,
Took a little time in Firefox, firebug...
Looks like you have declared in the define_main_page

1. <font size="3">Unique gifts for any occasion. If you are looking for a
2. font size is declared in the stylesheets
3. just create a class or id for the p

Hi Haredo,

Thanks for the reply. I tried that. I went into the normal stylesheet and also into the bettercategories one. When in them I changed everything that was 'bold' to 'normal' and it never worked!!!

Oh, and in case it helps, I'll post the stylesheet below. It's a total mess with bits of code everywhere though!!!! :blush:

Thanks for the help haredo. I finally got it fixed. :smile:

Just Curious,
What was the fix for me and fellow Zenners who have this same problem..

Well, I wish I knew...I just seemed to sort it :blush:

I think the conflict was between the bettercategories and standard css stylesheet.

In the standard stylesheet I removed the 'bold' references from the link styles (at the top of the CSS sheet).

On the bettercategories stylesheet, I removed all of the bold references.
