I doubt that anybody does that in reality.
individual stylesheets are mostly a userbillity subject i guess. not many does that probably but many would use the overriding facilties of fonts in their browser why else would the browser houses eleaborate that feature so much?. > What about the suggestion of simply specifying Serif or San-Serif and fixed? but what about the navigation-font-family then? leading to another question, which fonts looks pixelated on said linux distribution, all of them ? also, what about consistency to the navigation-images that uses verdana? what about consistency to the manual? -------------------------------------------------------------- is helvetica bad? I've tuned the guide to use: font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; after suggestions from users, and nobody has complained since. Also this is the fixed font used: font-family: courier new, courier, monospace; -------------------------------------------------------------- bascially i am -1 for the change, i like the current _design_ of which the fonts are a major part. they are "tested"/approved for at least half a year on many different browsers/platforms by people on this list. still if people are +1 for this change i won't personally mind. ./allan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
