Ah, thank you. Although, I don't see why it ignores the entire rule! If I
try to set it to:

        font: normal normal bold x-large flibble;

And there is no font called "flibble", surely it should still set the font
to normal normal bold x-large?

Oh well, I have explicitly specified the font for now. I am almost certain
that Opera (and even IE!) gets it right in this case.

Now... if only I could find out why Gecko puts that ugly white stripe
along the top of the page. Happens here too:
