Really? How does the blind via readers, such as JAWS, understand what a is? First, never use -- or for that matter. Second, use or instead. Readers can understand and render STRONG and EMPHASIZED text, but not and text -- those tags mean nothing and that's the reason why they are not encouraged for use and even removed from XHTML. Third, if neither of those tags (i.e., or ) work for you, they try using a class (or an id) with a css rule of: .whatever {

    font-weight: bold;

} or #whatever {

    font-weight: bold;
