Glad to see you fixed it. I had looked over your code and CSS page and came up with this.

I was going to suggest:
Experience Artemis in action!
and
Scan • Plan • Biopsy • Report

And place in your CSS:
.tealStyle {
color:#007f9e;
font-weight: bold;
}

It gave me something to keep my mind occupied. {#Lol}

I agree, SPAN is a better element to use with the BOLD property included.

CSS CODE HELP NEEDED

I cannot perform a search for the Web Design thread this morning, so I'll (cross-)post this here in the hope that I'll get a good answer.

Please consider www.eigen.com. See the bold blue text (e.g., "Experience Artemis in action!") in the middle column (Eigen Updates)? I need it to have the same teal color (#007F9E) as the adjacent hyperlinks. Right now the text is in a conventional

text block and uses as the style.

I've been wrestling with this for an hour and a half this morning, have looked at several W3C pages and still can't get a handle on it. Are any of you CSS code jockeys?

I'm using an external CSS page; here is a snippet that controls stuff in this column:

#updates {
display: block;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
padding: 10px;
width: 300px;
float: left;
height: 520px;
color: #000000;
}

#updates h6 {
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: bold;
}

DOH!

Somewhere along the line I got the bright idea to stick page-specific CSS code in the page header—rather than continue massaging the external style sheet—and had forgotten all about it.

Yes. I went back to look at the HTML and CSS pages because it occurred to me (during lunch) that there had to be something making the "strong" elements that blue color, when they should be the same color as all the other text. It looks as if you have since fixed it.

This is a little crude, and there are probably more recently-practiced CSS folks who may know a better way. But maybe something like this:
teal class

with this in style sheet:

strong (or whatever element).teal
{
color:#007f9e;
}

It worked on a small test page I did, but it may be better to use "ID" instead of "Class"

You shouldn't have to add "font-weight:bold;", but if the style command doesn't work within the "strong" tag, you can create a new class or ID which has the "Bold" and color commands in it.

It may also be better to use "ID" instead of "Class"

Thanks for the attempt. It did not work, however.

Dear sir,

I would like to purchase your telescope listed on the radioclasifiedparadise website. Unfortunately, my secretary had the money order made out for too large a sum, and it has already been mailed. Please just send the extra funds back with the telescope when you ship it to me. Keep an extra $100 for your troubles.

Good day.

Just send me a hundred bucks and we'll go from there.

And Scott's images (nice Mixtape logo Scott)

okay, cool. The mixtape image was on the old server so now that it's on the new, the path is still the same. Had me worried. The telescope is something that I just uploaded to the new server via their web control panel thing... I can't get Fetch or Cyberduck to log in for some reason. But I'm almost done with this chore. Thanks Dave, too...

Nice, and I'm sure they're a great company. Unfortunately I'm also a cheap bastard or I wouldn't be with GoDaddy in the first place. Venovix looks about 2.5x more expensive than HostGator.

Well this better be worth it. What a titanic ass-pain this is. They all say "free transfer!" of all your stuff from one host to the new but it's going to suck up days and days and take a long time to get everything right. If I actually had a website that got hits I would never consider making this change. I'll most likely be down for days or weeks and all the crap pictures I post here will probably all get 404'd and never work right again. Jesus.
Edit: everything worked even though confidence was low. No broken links, and I was down for a total of never. The HostGator control panel is much more streamlined than GoDaddy... everything's easy to find. Support is good, too, tho I haven't phoned them (I prefer live chat). It's really nice. $4 a month.
