Hey,
my bold-text function works fine, however when viewing the site, the text that is in bold is only VERY slightly in bold; almost undetectable.
My question is: how do I make it so it's 'thicker'?
I have taken a look at the style.css but am unsure which section points to bold text in a post.
Can anyone offer me some suggestions?
Thanks,
k s c

Sorry, I should have added that it's my 'posting content' area that has the problem; I write a post, and I place a word in bold using a publishing program (Livewriter) or WordPress' own, and the word is hardly detected as bold.
Hope this helps,

P.S: Thanks for the link, it was helpful, but I'm not sure where I need to edit, in my theme.
Give a link to your site, so somebody can look at it and tell you what to change.

There is an example of the problem in this post: http://www.blog.killerstickmancomics.com/?p=146
*The word 'BOMB' in the fifth paragraph, is in 'bold'*
Thanks for taking a look,

Well, I gotta say that it looks perfectly fine to me. It's bold. It probably doesn't get any more bold than that.
Still, if you want to edit your style.css, you can add this to it:
.post strong {
font-weight: 900;
}You could do other stuff there instead too, like color: red; or something.

Thanks for looking, I'll tinker with it.

Looked OK to me. Looked more bold as I went one size up in my browser for easier reading. The 900 setting Otto showed is the boldest :) so maybe a different font will show darker. (?)

Yep, your right: it dosen't go any more bold than that!
Thanks for the code, I placed it in but it stayed the same, so I took your other suggestion and gave 'strong' a colour; it's now a fitting 'orange', which will do just fine.
I may take a look at other fonts in the future, but it's not that big of a deal now.
Ty.
