I’m updating a site and I just cannot seem to get rid of bold.
I don’t know it this is the root cause but I don’t have a “p” in my styles
listing. Should it be there and can I reinsert rather than redo the whols
site??
If I create an HTML box and insert some text without box or text styling I
get 20px Verdana bold centred.

You can recreate the “p” tag by creating a new style and instead of putting “p” in the name area you’d put “p” in the “tag” area and make sure you erase the name area afterwords so it just says “p” in the “tag” area.
Well Peter I have looked at the code on this page and cannot see why this is happening.
<TD CLASS="BodyText2" HEIGHT=340 ROWSPAN=2><P><SPAN CLASS="style63">One of the most in-demand trumpeters around, Damon is now based on the continent where his blues-drenched lines and rich sound are earning him many plaudits and euros. Now a Ronnie Scotts recording artist, Damon came to prominence with a fantastic debut album, 'A rhythm indicative' in the late 90's. In 1996, his international reputation was confirmed with a scorching set opposite Chick Corea at the Red Sea International Jazz Festival. Damon has gone on to work with legendary jazzers such as Dave Liebman, Stefan Grossman (both ex-Miles Davis sidemen) and stood in for the late Stanley Turrentine at the Tel Aviv Jazz Festival in 2000. </SPAN></P><P
There appear to be 2 styles applied to this text 1) BodyText2 and 2) style63 - but neither of these has a bold attribute!
Where did the text come from? Have you tried deleting the container, recreating it, reimporting clean text from a text editor and then applying a newly created style with just the attributes you want.
That is what I would try first.

BTW I have just realised that this is a php page and there may be more code that we cannot see - is there a perticular reason for this?

That’s the weird thing I harried the styles around but nothing I did made
any difference. In the inspector that text is not marked as bold.

Yup I’ve tried that, in fact I spent well over an hour chasing around all
the obvious things. The text came out of an email copied to TextEdit then
copied out into FW. The FW doc has been my container for this site for over
well over two years and this the first time I’ve hit a dilemma like this
that I just could not solve.

I think this was a historic thing when I was composing the pages I was
having a lot of trouble with browser cache so I adopted the .php page to try
to eliminate the problem.

Looks like you’ve attached a style to your entire document called “Gigdate2”
Remove the bold styling from Gigdate2, just for kicks, and see if that drops the bold.
You also don’t have to put font-family properties for your created styles. Just add “Verdana” as your font in your “p” tag and you can then eliminate having to set Verdana for everything.

B**** H**** your right, I must have slipped when I was editing something an
accidentally applied that style to the mater page! I’ve been using FW since
before it was FW and have never done that before!

I’ve been using that method for my default font styling for a while, as
mentioned above I’d not noticed I’d applied a new style to the mater page.
Now I know, [and feeling somewhat a dignbat, not the Zapf kind] I’ll look
out for that in future.
Huge thanks Dan
