Is it possible to change the colour of a styled text (ie. bold, italic or underlined) in a stylesheet?

I tried to use

b, i, u{
color: #3366CC;}

but it didnt work. Is there another way, or is it not possible? Thanks.

That would be the right way.
I think for it to work you have to include <p> tags around all your paragraphs as well.

can you provide a link to your non-working webpage?
thanks.

OK...erm...i'm such an idiot. The colour I had specified for the bold, italic and underlined text to be was the same colour as the regular text. *slaps self*

Sorry guys, but thanks.
Chris :D
