Re: Subject types bug in amaya 5.3

Keith;
    The lack of display may simply be a coding preference in Amaya for using
CSS notation in complex tagging. Try using <span style="font-style: italic;
font-weight: 700"> ... </span> for the bold italics and then nest the <code>
... </code> tags within the span.
