<strong>This will normally be bold</strong>
[/code]
To make 100% sure it's bold, add this to your style section:
<i>
</i>strong { font-weight: bold; }

@rhsundergroundJun 16.2005 — i guess to add onto that post is this from w3:

<EM>:

Indicates emphasis.

<STRONG>:

Indicates stronger emphasis.[/QUOTE]

@Stephen_PhilbinJun 16.2005 — Just to clarify (in case you were wondering), the two methods are different in that the <strong> method carries with it a meaning and the <span> method does not.

If you enclose text in the <strong> element, you mean to place a strong emphasis on that text. If you use the <span> method then you are just decorating the text in that way yet the text the has been made bold carries no greater significance or meaning than its neighbouring text.

true. <span> would be better if you had more that one modification you wished to make to the text, such as font, color, height, etc.

Or, just apply them to the strong tag:
[code=html]
<strong style="font-size: large; color: red;">strong text that is large and red</strong>
[/code]
