Well I don't have any page-specified fonts at all: they're all specified in the style sheet (and non-CSS browsers should just use their own default fonts). I think I'll have to drag out the old Mac we have around here and connect it to the router to see how things look. I think we have a pretty old version of Netscape (version 4.something) on it so that should help, too. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
