Hi all.

I can't for the life of me figure out why my header tags will only pick up the browser defaults and when I spec the h tag sizes, I can't get it to change. There's no inline CSS. Can someone please enlighten me? Ta!


/* ------- simple reset ------- */

html, body, p, ul, ol, li, form, fieldset, legend
{
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
	border: 0;
	font-size: 100%;
	vertical-align: baseline;
}

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, { margin-top: 0; }

fieldset,img { border: 0; }

legend { color: #000; }

ol, ul { list-style: none; }

sup { vertical-align: text-top; }

sub { vertical-align: text-bottom; }

caption, th, td
{
	text-align: left;
	vertical-align: top;
	font-weight: normal;
}

input, textarea, select
{
	font-size: 110%;
	line-height: 1.2;
}

abbr, acronym
{
	border-bottom: .1em dotted;
	cursor: help;
}


/* HTML5 display-role reset for older browsers */
article, aside, details, figcaption, figure, 
footer, header, hgroup, menu, nav, section {
	display: block;
}
body {
	line-height: 1;
}
ol, ul {
	list-style: none;
}
blockquote, q {
	quotes: none;
}
blockquote:before, blockquote:after,
q:before, q:after {
	content: '';
	content: none;
}
table {
	border-collapse: collapse;
	border-spacing: 0;
}

/* END RESET */

Validate the above CSS and you get a number of parse errors. It seems that some of the characters have become corrupted. Simply re-typing them should fix your issues.

Also, the font-size declarations for the headings seem to be using an en dash instead of a hyphen.

En dashes!!!! Thanks so much Josh. I initially pulled those sizes from a PDF to see what they looked like and that's where they came from.

No worries at all. Glad I could help!

You also have a comma after h6 where you are defining the margin-top: 0
