I can no longer "bold" text in a post.

Question

I have recently changed to Windows 7 and can not "bold" any text when I post something.

Examplestrong text this happens.

...

Even when I cut and paste an existing post the bolded text has gone. (see the latest "Confusng English words Challenge 25"

...

Any ideas why this is happening?

Answer 1

Your text is in bold, make sure your web page isn't too zoomed because this way you'll see everything in bold and won't recognize the bold text!

I can see your bolded text Lovely - ian-hill, Aug 8, 2011

Answer 2

Ian, I can see the bold you typed perfectly. I suggest you try with a different web browser.

Voy a tratar de hacer eso - gracias Lázaro - ian-hill, Aug 8, 2011

Answer 3

Hmmm...interesting.

The "bold" text is really using the < strong > HTML tag. It is possible that you've set your browser to override the styling rules of the website. Not likely, but possible. Did you recently make any changes to your browser's settings?

I can see all bold text but not mine. - ian-hill, Aug 8, 2011

Ian, do you mean that you do N O T see the words "strong text" as bold in your opening post? - webdunce, Aug 8, 2011

Also, what about if you log out and then go back and look at your own posts? - webdunce, Aug 8, 2011
