and confusion in frontpage

Hi,

I have noticed that in frontpage(2000) that when I make some text Bold and then change the font characteristic of the text it looks fine in preview mode but not when I publish it and view with IE5.5 sp2 (it does not have the colours)

The code Frontpage produces is

my text

which when I look at it in IE5.5 does not have any of the color properties.

If I then manually swap the code around to have the s outside the s as ..

my text

It reads fine.

Is this a MS Frontpage feature or can I fix it?

Hope you can help

Regards

Charlie

Either way it should work fine..

By right..

my text

Is the correct way....

Or if it does not work still.. consider using CSS..

<STYLE TYPE="TEXT/CSS">
font { font-style:bold; }
</STYLE>

By right.. i believe it is your IE's problem :-) Never heard of anyone having this problem before..

Thanks

I have tried it on a few machines now see page

http://www.ovingtonboats.com/content/i14/boatinfo.htm

the section "the dinghy world just watched in awe!" should be in white as per the code

the
dinghy world just watched in awe!

same with the "Specification" section at the bottom of the page.

Any clues??
