The topics were originally imported from Word before I applied the drop-downs to the headings. Otherwise, I can't think of anything remarkable about the files themselves.

Drop-down header ignoring applied styles
Drop-down header ignoring applied styles
For some reason, several of my drop-down headers are defaulting to green italic when the style sheet says they should be non-italic and blue. This is the same whether the drop down has been activated or not. I have sets of a dozen drop-downs in the same topic where the heading shows up correctly in most, but on 3-5 headings they're stubbornly green italic. This occurs throughout my project in several different topics, so I assumed it's a style sheet issue, but the style looks correct on the sheet.

Re: Drop-down header ignoring applied styles
Two things to check:
1. Open a good (working) topic and a bad (not working) topic in the Internal Text Editor. Look to where the drop-down tags are and see if there are any inline styles that may be overriding the stylesheet.
2. (And I think this is the most likely scenario) Open the good and bad topics in the Internal Text Editor and compare the tag sets of both. There will probably be a slight difference between them. One of the codes results in using an additional style that you'd have to define <a> styles for. The other doesn't. You can either define the additional styles so that you don't have to worry which tag structure was used, or you can manually edit the tags where necessary to strip out the additional set of tags.
