    I just noticed that words italicized aren't showing up on my screen! Test:

    Normal: This is a test.

    Italicized: This is a test.

    Bold: This is a test..

    Looking at the above, the italicized sentence "This is a test." doesn't show at all on my screen!?!

    Shows fine for me.

    For ref I'm on a Thinkpad T61p running Win7 and using Firefox 3.6.16

    All three show exactly as you intended on mine, running Win7 and IE 9.

    Thanks! Looks like it's just my computer / browser because what I see is this:

    Normal: This is a test.

    Italicized:

    Bold: This is a test.

    Weird because this hasn't happened before. I'll close and reopen the browser and see if the italicized sentence will show.

    Ben, that's what happens when you italicize things too much. :)

    Closing and reopening the browser changed nothing. But now, after having rebooted the computer, I can see italicized fonts again! Weird. Oh well, at least it's back to normal now…

    I was going to say, how did you know there was italicized text if you couldn't see it?

    Are you just screwing with us?

    Actually, Jerry, I was just screwing with you.

    You are right, I really shouldn't know there was italicized text if I couldn't see them to begin with — even though I was the one who typed and posted them.

    Ohhhhhh

    I didn't notice that you were the one that posted it

    That explains it

    Also, it said "Italicized text:" just before

    Can I now have the two minutes of my life back that I used to read this thread?

    Hopefully since I typed that in italics Ben won't be able to see it.
