You should specify the original h3-style so that it will only select h3-elements of a certain class. All the user-h3 has to do then is to not use that class. You could also inherit by using a div-wrapper, in case you don't want to include classes in each author-h3. For example, in the HTML: <div class="myStyle"> <h3>Text in my style</h3> <p>...</p> </div> <div class="userStyle"> <h3>Text in user Style</h3> </div> And the CSS: .myStyle h3 { letter-spacing: 2px; /* etc. */ } Depending on the CSS-property, there are also the values "inherit", "normal", "auto" or "none" (no quotes). -- Philipp Lenssen M+R Infosysteme http://www.mrinfo.de
