I've managed to fix one instance of it, but there's another that is still keeping me lost.

What happens in Mac IE is that the entire link then becomes the orange color instead of just the text within the bold tag. WTF???

strong is different to bold though, depends on the context of the copy I suppose but they are different and both complient
