Change format of h2 style

[kakshaks]

I have V8 and wish to override or amend the default setting of the h2 style. At the moment, text defined as the h2 style appears on its own line, with a bigger font and in a different colour. I have managed to change the font size and colour in the Actinic StyleSheet but cannot find what insists it is on a line on its own. I need to remove this so that the h2 text is then immediately followed by the normal text.
.
Any ideas?
Thanks

OK, you could add:

{display:inline;}


to your h2 style to achieve what you ask but I wouldn't reccommend doing this for several standards, accessibility and (probably) seo reasons - headings are by default block level elements and I can't see much to be gained by this - though I am sure people will soon put me straight if I am wrong!

This sounds pretty foolish to me, what I suspect you actually want is the bottom margin to disappear so that text starts directly underneath with no gap. Headings are in larger styles because they are just that - headings - and operate as they are supposed to (block level elements) and more importantly as people and SEs expect. If you insist of retaining a H2 and also having text on the same line, then i suspect (not tested or tried ever) float: left; would be your best way as this will shrink it to size and allow content to sit up next to it. It will look a mess though unless your text size is the same, in which case it's a pointless heading as it heads nothing.

Hopefully this is just a design request and not some crazy ass SEO expert guiding you.

Out of interest, are you trying to get your site to read like a newspaper, for example:

BANKING BONANZA

Giving bonuses to executives at Lloyds Bank would be "completely wrong", Tory leader David Cameron has said.

Payments totalling £120m are reportedly to go to workers at Lloyds - which is 43% state-owned - despite record losses at the bank's subsidiary HBOS.

With the 'G' wrapped within the <h2> tag and 'iving bonuses to...' within a <p> tag?

There's a CSS style to enlarge the first letter of a sentence like in oldy worldy books.
