Question working with <H3>

Hey, I was wondering if there is a way to make any header tag (in my case, it's H3) so that the text appears as normal? Essentially, make it so that nothing changes with the text. eg- 'Hello <H3>everybody</H3>' would appear just the same as 'Hello everybody.'

I've tried multiple things using CSS, but can't seem to make it work.

Hi,

that's a misuse of the h3 tag in my opinion. It's a header tag and shouldn't really be used to decorate body text.

I think a better structure would be:
<h1>Main page keyword Title
<p>text
<h2>Page sub-title(s)
<p> text
<h3>paragraph titles...
<p> text

However, if you really want to do that you can do it very easily with CSS eg something like (put these somewhere in your <head> tags:

<style>
<!--
h1 {color:black;background-color:white;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-size:15px;text-align:center;font-family:verdana;font-weight:600;text-decoration:none;}
h2 {color:black;background-color:white;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-size:14px;text-align:center;font-family:verdana;font-weight:600;text-decoration:none;}
h3 {color:black;background-color:white;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-size:12px;text-align:center;font-family:verdana;font-weight:400;text-decoration:none;}
p {color:black;background-color:white;padding:0px;margin:0px;font-size:12px;text-align:center;font-family:verdana;font-weight:400;text-decoration:none;}
//-->
</style>

You should offer font alternatives, but I never do, and you can make the code more efficient by h1 h2 h3 {..} etc. but the above layout is easier to read and edit. After you've played a little with the above settings and you are happy, you can experiment with other tags and put the css in an external file.

Cheers,
Paz.

Also, if you want the H3 to appear without a line break before it, set the CSS for the H3 to display:inline;

Although Paz is right, it's not a correct use of an H3 tag.
