Hello,
When I have a series of fonts being called in a font-family rule, how do I know
which one is the one being chosen?
On this page:
http://mcgivney.ehclients.com/locations/
The font should be the Titillium for the whole page, but of course it gets
complicated when there are browsers that cannot show this font and it falls
back to the next font in the stack, which is Tahoma, then Arial.
How do I know which one the browser is giving me?
Are there any places on the above URL where it is NOT showing Titillium?
Thanks!
Rory
Titillium has easily distinguishable glyphs that are easily distinguishable
from Tahoma/Arial-- it sometimes helps to use +2 font-scaling if you have set
the fonts smaller than default. @fontface is well supported [assuming you have
set it correctly ] in IE 6/7/8 and among the current versions of compliant
browsers, including IE9. @fontface is not supported in Camino -- but then you
already new that -- nor, in earlier versions of browsers prior to the
introduction of the CSS @fontface module.

David, can you tell me how to use +2 font scaling? What does that mean? Thanks
for your reply, very helpful as always.
Rory
It means make the type bigger so that you can see it and read it more
easily [ and so that you can play god and break nearly every site on the
Web when doing so:-) ].
Fron the keyboard:
PC
Press the ctrl key and bang the +[plus] key 2 or 3 times
Mac
Press the apple key and bang the +[plus] key 2 or 3 times
IE
Depends on version, IE6 is:
View>Text Size>Largest
Best,
