    I cant seem to get the standard paragraph text in the below page to be heavier so we can actually see it.

    http://www.showcase-me.co.uk/

    If you go to the below content you can hardly see it, I have tried adding “font-weight: normal;” to the stylesheet but it makes no difference. Any ideas where I need to amend so you can see the small text better?

    “I spent 5 years at Lastminute.com where I progressed from an Analyst into leading”

    Thanks,

    Chris

    Looks like the initial font-weight might be the culprit

    body {
        font-weight: 300; /* remove this */
        font-style: normal;
        letter-spacing: 0.025em;
        height: 100%;
        min-height: 100%;
        overflow-x: hidden;
        color: #5d5d5d;
        font-family: "Raleway","Helvetica Neue",helvetica,arial,sans-serif;
        font-size: 14px;
        line-height: 22px;
    }

    Thanks for the response, I have made the change as recommended but still its the same. I changed the color to #000000 also to see if that worked and it all still remained the same.

    Hmm…caching?

    I could see a definite change when toggling the property using Developer Tools before.

    The colro is still #5d5d5d as defined on the style tag in the head of the page.
