Default Re: Firefox H1 text is Red, Black in I.E. Help please!

Actually, the page contains:
Code:
<font color="red"><b>Sale!<font face=arial></font><b>
(See: http://www.webproworld.com/newreply....ote=1&p=399082 )

There are various problems here:

* The tags aren't "nested" properly - not closed in the correct order;
* The "font face" is redundant because it's closed immediately;
* The "font color" is not closed;
* The second "b" should be "/b"

So, what you probably intended:

Code:
<font color="red" face="arial"><b>Sale!</b></font>
Notice how each "opening" tag is matched with a "closing" tag; also notice the correct order for "closing" the tags.

The W3Schools website has a handy area for experimenting with the various tags.
