    Bold button not depressed when bold text selected

    Hi There,
     
    I'm using color to indicate 'boludness' in my css design. Therefore I use the following css.
     
    a,b,strong             {color:#CE0815;font-weight:normal;}
     
    When I highlight text and click the bold button, the <strong> tags go around the text and it is displayed correctly. However I cannot 'unbold' the text because the editor doesn't see the text as bold.
     
    I realise that strictly speaking the text isn't bold, however as the bold button places <strong> tags around the text, I'd expect the editor to be able to remove them.
     
    Any thoughts?
     
    Many Thanks,
    Ady
