https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=12154 --- Comment #27 from Aryeh Gregor <ayg@aryeh.name> 2012-02-02 17:11:53 UTC --- The fact that font-weight: bold means they're a no-op in headings is a reasonable point -- nested <b> is probably an authoring mistake, but <b> nested in <h*> is probably intended to do something. But if authors want to further offset text in headings, they're best served by italics or such. That will work consistently cross-platform, which nested <b> won't for the foreseeable future unless the author selects fonts carefully. E.g., Verdana seems to support only two weights, and that's one of the most popular web fonts in existence. Such fonts are not going away. But I'm starting to sound like a broken record. Regardless, I agree with Simon that <b> and <strong> need to be the same here. Having them both font-weight: bolder is better than having them differ, IMO. -- Configure bugmail: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
