I think there is a bug in setting faces for *bold* in headlines.
I've tested this in 5.01 and 5.02

* Bold in a headline *does work* at the top level
** But *does not work* at the second level
*** It also *does not work* at the third level
**** But *does work* again on all lower levels

This is only broken for in-buffer emacs faces.  Bold in HTML export
works for all headline levels.

OK, I am giving up on emphasis.  This is really too hard for
my little brain.  Basically, I don't know how to make this
work for all the requests I have gotten in the past,
including

- allowing stacked fontification, like bold and italic
- allowing characters that are emphasis markers inside
   an emphasis, like */usr/lib*
- allowing white space and newlines in the emphasis
   like *this is all bold*,

I guess one could write a complex function to do the matching,
but with a regular expression - like I am doing it now, I
don't think I can make it work.

Here is the deal:  If I get at least 5 tutorials full of
screenshots by the end of the summer, I will give it
yet another shot :-)
Until then, we have to live with this issue.

- Carsten

P.S.:  Of course: thank you for reporting the issue.  Its just
too hard to fix.

Can't say I blame you.  I know I couldn't do it with a regexp.

TODO Org-mode tutorial with screenshots
C-c C-d [2007-09-02] <Enter>

*After you get the 5 tutorials*, here's my suggestion:
Have emphasis work for the simplest case (no stacking, no enclosed
markers, no white space, etc.).  For anything more complicated,
require LaTeX style markup (e.g., \textbf{this is all bold}), but
hide the markup when the closing brace is entered (like hiding
square brackets in links).  Would that be more reasonable?

Thanks,
Dan

I love that. :-)

Yes, it might be reasonable to reduce the scope.
Of course, already now you can do

    ** This heading contains @<b>bold text@</b>

But this is not highlighted in the buffer, while it
works for export.
