In other words I'd like the word "Deluxe" to be not only bold, but larger than the other text, which I know is easy to do using <font> tags, but how can it be done using CSS AND kept on the same line as the remaining text? For instance,, If I class it as a separate <p> or even <h6> or something, as soon as I close that tag the description will appear on the next line? Nicole _____________________________

The menu is a css list styled and then I use <a tabindex="2" href="design.html" title="go to design page">D<span class="shrinknav">esign</span></a> which gives me a menu button as follows Design _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype? (in reply to Nicole)
