Hello, I have a dynamic text box that pulls HTML-formatted content from a PHP script and everything is working, including getting it formatted with a stylesheet, except the stylesheet seems to be ignored for \<B\> tags. This is the code I tried:

b,B { font-weight:bold; color:#6600FF; font-family:Baskerville; }  
a:link { text-decoration:none; font-family:Baskerville; font-weight:bold; }  
a:hover { text-decoration:underline; }  
a:active { text-decoration:none; }

This is just for texting. I have a simple textbox with plain text, part of it in bold, part of it as a link, and the link gets the Baskerville font, but the bold tag doesn’t. When I set a color for the link, the link gets a color but the bold tag doesn’t. I’m stumped. Any ideas?
