Can't believe I did that. The reason I replied in the first place was to
fix the fallback by including the required hyphen:
body {font-family: Geneva, 'nimbus sans', 'luxi sans', Arial, sans-serif;}

NAICT, Mac users generally prefer Geneva to Helvetica, so better would

If you care about Mac OS X users, you might want to use

You can improve this. In a Windows machine you will get Arial font, and in a
Mac you will get the similar Helvetica. However, your viewers using Linux
are likely to get the bit-mapped Helvetica font. This font is required for

* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
place that at the top of your stylesheet and it will set margin and
padding to 0 on all elements. thus no need to repeat it throughout.
