RE: [WSG] fonts problems
Marvin, OK, so Insert-F appears to be a JAWS command for SAY FONT, and should say the font name at the cursor out loud. Apparently it could not resolve the name given the stylesheet error that I pointed out previously. Did fixing the font-family tag fix the JAWS problem?

RE: [WSG] fonts problems
Oops I replied too soon; there are a couple of errors in your stylesheet. In the body section, line 7, the font-family tag should read: font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; You left the dash out of the san-serif. I’m not sure if the font order matters. These fonts should be on your computer, unless they have removed them in Vista. Anybody using Vista that can verify this? There is also an invalid color code in the a:visited section, line 21. Should be six characters, not five. Hope this helps From: Steve Eagleson [mailto:zen27...@zen.co.uk] Sent: Saturday, June 20, 2009 2:23 PM To: 'wsg@webstandardsgroup.org' Subject: RE: [WSG] fonts problems With the exception of the missing graphics, everything looks OK to me in IE8.
