Yeah, that is a great plan. Only works for MSIE and was last updated in February 2003. * The web and a browser is not a text editing suite - the browser uses the fonts installed on the client machine - web sites do not "embed" the font. Therefore you are limited to a certain range of fonts: http://www.codestyle.org/css/font-family/sampler-WindowsResults.shtml There are several attempts at embedding fonts in pages, most of which vanished with older browsers. The CSS specs also have an @font directive, but it is hardly supported: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/fonts.html#font-descriptions If you want to embed your font, you can use Flash replacement techniques (http://usabletype.com/articles/2004/how-and-when-to-use-sifr/), or generate images on the fly, but there is no surefire way to download a font on the fly. * may contain sarcasm ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
