What happened?

Text marked <strong> in an HTML module in a page with the Aperture theme does not render as bold text.

Steps to reproduce?

1. Created a DNN v10.2.0-rc2 website
2. Created a new blank page. Leave page theme at site default (Aperture).
3. Add an HTML module in the Content pane.
4. Added some text and bolded the first line.
5. First line does not render as bold.

Current Behavior

I added some text and bolded the first line. Everything looks good.

Here is the markup:

But when I browse to the page, I don't see bolded text:

Inspecting the page, the font weight is 200. Something seems to be overriding <strong>.

Expected Behavior

Looking for the source of the problem, I changed the theme of the page to 2shine.BS5. The first line is showing up as bold text as expected.

The problem appears to be in Aperture rather than a core DNN issue.

Relevant log output

none

Anything else?

The behavior is manifested in Edge, Firefox and Chrome (Windows 11 Pro).

Affected Versions

Current development branch (unreleased)

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Microsoft Edge
