FN-FORUM: CSS / MAC / PC / Arial font issue??

date posted 18th January 2005 13:15

Hi list!
CSS query... Currently developing site using simple text CSS style sheets
using ARIAL as the default font to view first.

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/adam.mould/adam/web4/test/test.htm

on MAC OSX the stylesheet works on I.E5, Netscape 7, Opera, and Safari...
But not on any PC browsers? - only style sheets based on VERDANA seem to
work??

This one doesn't view properly on PC:
.text10bold {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
line-height: 14px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #333333;
}
This one does:
.verdanabold {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
line-height: 14px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #333333;
}
Both my PC and MAC have Arial - so it's a bit of a mystery.. Please anyone
had similar? Please mail off list as well as the forum!
Ta!
