Thanks so much for the reply. I am think you are correct in that it is
small text, or as David says, mouse text.
I will try increasin the text and then see what i get.
It might have to wait a few days... I am swamped at work.
It is amazing how differently Macs render text that IE.

As a side note to Holly's reply, yes the text is too small to render it's
"boldness" (that's a word, I promise:) ), but there is another reason.
On the Bio Page how you have bolded Kelly's name and then placed it inside
an anchor tag:
<strong><a href="http://slusherland.com/"; title="me!">Kelly Slusher</a></strong>
Most times I have done something like this, the parser will bold the text,
but then it encounters the anchor tag and looks to the stylesheet on how to
display the text contained in it. So, you're telling it to be bold, and THEN
to do whatever is defined as a { ... } in your stylesheet.
A few ways to fix: simply place the <strong></strong inside the a tag like
so:
<a href="http://slusherland.com/"; title="me!"><strong>Kelly Slusher</strong></a>
Or you can use css to do it. Either place style="font-weight: bold;"
in the anchor tag, make a class in your stylesheet and declare it in
the a tag, like below:
/* CSS */
.bold {
font-weight: bold;
}
/* HTML */
...
<a href="..." class="bold">kelly Slusher</a>
...
Of course, you're still getting the problem when not using the anchor
tag, but this follow up was just to let you know about the anchor
problem.
I would recommend using a little larger font size anyways, since most
people with bad eyes would have a terrible time trying to read that
text. Just a suggestion. Hope it helps. :)
