Dear wizards,

I am trying to set up a simple generic style sheet for the typography which I'm likely to use most, and am having trouble with getting a :first-letter to work in IE5.5.

I want the first letter of my <h6> to be larger than the rest of the line, in a darker colour, and I want the rest of the line to be oblique. You can see an example at:

                                www.gwelanmor-internet.co.uk/typotest.html

and there you will see the effect working fine in IE6, FF1.0, Opera etc. But IE5.5, although it gets the colour right, h6:first-letter doesn't pick up the increase in size for the first letter.

Stumped!

Can anyone help out with this?

Many thanks,

Bob McClelland
