    Formatting error

    It seems that everything that used to be in italics is now in bold, at least in my browser. So, I tried to put something in italics, and even though I used the [-I-]-[-/I-] formatting tags it came out bold anyway. (I inserted the hyphens so the text wouldn't do an automatic mark up in the example. There are no hyphens in the normal formatting code.)

    Anyone else seeing this?

    Bold, italics ... is working here.
    I know formatting errors with this software, but I suppose it is a browser problem. A new start (browser /system I do not remember) has helped.

    Yes, it is working in Firefox, so it must be the browser.

    I haven't noticed any problems in IE 6.1 and 7.0 - I recently posted some messages with italics just fine.

    Safari is my default browser. In John's post above, I can see he used the proper formatting tags for italics, but it shows up as bold.

    Here I've put Safari in italics and Safari in bold, and they both come out bold on my screen.
