    on this site i added a bottom margin to the h3 that starts off “Serving corporate and residential properties…” but for some reason it isnt getting applied.

    i suspect it has something to do with an issue called Margin Collapsing, which i’ve read up about but cant figure out how to fix in this circumstance. i tried a border, i tried padding, but nothing worked.

    please advise how to fix. thanks!

  • In your style css look for this code

    h3 {
    display:inline;
    font-size:16px;
    margin-bottom:20px;

    is 16px change to 18px and you will that that part is little larger and bold.

    thanks but i do not want it to be any larger or more bold. i just want the bottom margin that i entered to be applied. someone please advise on how to do that. thanks.

    Looks like you using a child theme and importing from twenty ten theme and i see this as well

    #content h1, #content h2, #content h3, #content h4, #content h5, #content h6 {
    color:#000000;
    line-height:1.5em;
    margin:0 0 20px;

    this must coming from twenty ten theme this must conflicting with you change in child theme.

    but when i cancel that line of css out using firebug, there’s no change. what do i need to do?

    You have this in your child theme

    h3 {
    display:inline;
    font-size:16px;
    margin-bottom:20px;

    and this what is twenty ten that you importing

    #content h1, #content h2, #content h3, #content h4, #content h5, #content h6 {
    color:#000000;
    line-height:1.5em;
    margin:0 0 20px

    if you look at code you see its #content h3

    so try and change to

    #content h3 {
    display:inline;
    font-size:16px;
    margin-bottom:20px;

    as that h3 is used in content.
