Hi Ben,

Thank you for that. Your idea is so clear I am disappointed that I did
not think of it myself. Now that I can see that it can be done quite
easily with a styled heading element I just have to decide if the
gymnastics of doing it this way outweigh the ease of simply using <strong> :-)

Thanks again,

Andrew
