I have a H3 element that has white text and dark blue background color. This element is inside a DIV element that has black text and a light grey background color.

In Opera 8, this looks fine:
Good

In Internet Explorer 6, it doesn't:
Bad

Has anyone seen this problem before, or know how to go about fixing it?

The content_text is a class that is used by the DIVs on the main page

Ok, the CSS works fine. I'm going to assume that it is something with the way you nested your divs. Post the source of the page or atleast the problem portion of it as well.

Thats strange, its showing up fine for me in both IE and Firefox. Which version of IE are you using?

I'm using IE v6.

I've had it happen before, same problem. Something to do with header elements within a nested DIV and several color/background-color statements in the CSS. I don't know how I fixed it last time, though. Argh.

Yes, that works fine. At first it didn't but there's a period missing from the start of the content_text class in the style that I didn't see, haha.

Try this, go here and see if that looks alright. Then pick whatever option there and hit Continue to go to the second page and see if that looks alright. Don't bother trying much out, I'm having problems in PHP but that's another story. ;)

Jeez. Well maybe it's just my version is messed up. That's good to know. Thanks for your help.
