    Question Unwanted Italics?

    Hi Everyone, I'm REALLY new to CSS so please go easy on me...

    This is occurring on FF, Safari, and IE. I have two problem sheets, for some reason (which when opened through a <div> on the main page) are showing text in the left columns in italics. However, if you open these pages on their own, they display correctly. This would suggest I've setup the stylesheets correctly, so I assume something is going wrong on import??

    The corresponding sheets are loaded off "base.css" which is imported on the home page is as follows:

    @charset "UTF-8";
    /* CSS Document */

    @import url("/css/bio.css");
    @import url("/css/tattoos.css");
    @import url("/css/artwork.css");
    @import url("/css/links.css");
    @import url("/css/faceless.css");
    @import url("/css/contact.css");


    I've been over and over the HTML and the stylesheets and can find NOTHING (to the best of my knowledge) that would tell browsers to display italics. In a desperate attempt to find the problem, I removed the few instances where I did actually use them, to no avail.

    The pages are located at:

    I know this probably something SO simple that I've neglected to see with my inexperience... hopefully someone knowledgeable can lend a hand.

    Thanks!

    artwork.css

    #left p {
    color:#517983;
    font-family:"Trajan Pro";
    font-size:12px;
    font-style:italic;
    text-decoration:none;
    }
    Corrections to my coding/thoughts welcome.

    Thanks for the reply, Blue.

    I removed the line from the stylesheet. Unfortunately, this didn't correct the problem.

    I double checked tags in the HTML to again make sure everything italicized was closed.

    It's a mystery why the pages display properly on their own, but not within the <div> on the home page.
