Ric , Stuart, thanks for your responses.
Have tried the setting in Firefox and also corresponding setting in IE but
it seems to make no difference to either.
The good news is that everything looks fine in the Opera browser, so
I'm forced to conclude there is something wrong about my setup of both IE
and Firefox,
and I guess I'll have to let it go at that.
However, I'm very glad to know that for everybody else the blue J looks the
way I'd hoped it would.
Thanks again to all for helpful responses.
Roger

The J code displays as black with IE 7.0 and Firefox 2.0.0.2
on winXP, However, with an older version of Firefox,
1.5.0.10 on Linux, I see the J code in blue.

older browsers behave
differently. It had not occurred to me that that the newer
versions of the browsers might need to be configured suitably
to allow the colors to be seen. I will investigate this.
I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.2 on WinXP and I see the J code in blue. As far
as I know I haven't done anything special to change it's default
handling of font color since I upgraded from version 1.5.
I think the Firefox setting that John is referring to is:
Tools:Options:Content:Colors:Allow pages to choose their own colors,
instead of my selections above.
It should be checked otherwise the browser won't respect your style
sheet colors.
