-<li>Chose whether this holiday is repeated every day of the week or yearly.</li>
-         <ul><li style="background-color: #ffe599">TIP: An example of a repeatable holiday would be Christmas, New Year's or a staff in-service day</li></ul>
-<li>When you've entered the necessary data click 'Save'</li>

+        are in it. If you don't have that file, check etc/at.deny. If at.deny
+        exists but is blank, then every user can use it. Talk to your system
+        admin about adding the user to the right place to make the task
+        scheduler work.</p>
