HTML - Standard Font To Use. Is Tahoma Ok ?
Hi all,
I have build a website and i am now trying to respect every HTML standard and optimise the site for all kind of configuration and browser. I am trying .. My first question is about font. My whole website is build using TAHOMA font. I don't even know if it is a standard font for every OS and browsers. Is it ? Also, if not, should i test the site using another font and specify this alternate font somewhere? If yes, which one and how ? You can have a look at my page ( french page, for my girlfriend who is a musician ) The whole website is running but i am changing many things so my test link here for you would be <link removed> The bottom line of the page appear on 2 separates lines on Firefox and Conqueror. I am using browsershot.org for testing. See link : http://browsershots.org/website/http...envenuet1.html Something makes this line separate in 2 but why... Thanks for your input. Bob Similar TutorialsDoes anyone know of a font face generator that can convert a TTF or OTF font file into the 4 formats (woff, svg, eot, ttf), that's not font squirrel? That site only supports English fonts with a very low file size limit, and can't convert any foreign fonts. Already tried http://onlinefontconverter.com as well, doesn't work either as I waited like an hour then the server simply deleted my uploads without so much as an error pop-up lol, and now the website is not responding. This is for usage in CSS using the @font-face function. Thanks. Hello, When I try to set a font in HTML it works, but if I set a rule in my CSS to set the same font, it doesn't. Here are the three things I do (not at the same time of course): <font face="Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica"> ... ... ... </font> vs body { font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica; } or even... body { font: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica; } Out of all of those, only the first can change the font in my browser...is this a CSS issue because, somehow, the browser has superiority over CSS, and HTML has superiority over the browser? I would appreciate input. Thanks. I've searched all over the place, but can't find any documented HTML coding standard. I'm looking for something that I can use as a guideline for my developers to use. Some kind of a document along the lines of: - how layouts should be designed without using tables - when to use div's and when to use span's - how to properly control text flow - only using CSS for formatting - avoiding inline styles - using inherited CSS classes - etc... I have an enterprise-level .Net application written in C# and using XML for content parsing. We already have a standards guide for C# and XML is pretty self explanatory (in our setup at least), but nothing for HTML. I looked on W3C and other similar sites, but they don't have any actual "standards documents". Did anyone ever have to write something like that? Any help or a link would be appreciated. If you view my site: www.vivalefrench.com you can see that I have a few dead image links. And there are a few here and there and it would take a long time to adjust...is there an easy way to add a short piece of code at the top of my index page to detect 404 images and replace them with a standard (noimage.png) file.? I have seen somthing that you can do for each individual image but I'd like to put the code at the top to save time Here is my code: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="ltr" lang="en"> <head> <title>Prospective Student Database</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> </head> <body> <form action="insert.php" method="post"> <input type="radio" name="gender" value="1">Male </form> </body> </html> I am trying to follow the W3C standard, which I put in the W3C HTML validator. It keeps giving me a error of the radio button should end with '/>' instead of '>'. Like this: Code: <input type="radio" name="gender" value="1"/>Male But I checked the W3C recommendation. Even their recommendation on the radio button doesn't end with '/>' The recommendation is he http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html The first example already showed. What is the problem? Thanks. Hi People. I am hooked onto AJAX based apps these days. Instead of using JS to create html using strings. What I did was create a structure in html and clone it to repeat the structure using JS. But, to prevent DOM from being corrupted, I had to append a unique number to the ID of each element (and I had to attach the data to the element anyway). So, instead what I did was remove the ID of the element while cloning and used my own 'data' attribute to attach the data to the element. But, this would violate the W3 standards, right? Or it Wont? What is a better solution? Hi All, Im just wondering what the standard Width and Height is for a website nowadays? Thanks in Advance I would like to put some custom made font on my client web site, but of course the font change when is on server. That is totaly normal. Once I found one javascript that made shure that font stay the same regarding ho is looking at the site. Does anyone have that javascript or know where I could find it? Maybe some other trick? Google wasn't helpful this time. Ok so I am stuck between two fonts TREBUCHET MS and Verdana. Which looks better? Click here to see them. hey. i'm sort of fairly okay with HTML because of the myspace days but i can't figure this out for the life of me. i am trying to change a title font on a tumblr and i found where it needs to be changed, i changed the font.. and it's not working? it's still the same font as before. this is the coding that i changed. .title{color:#fe9abd; font-family:'Leckerli One', cursive; font-size:30px; line-height:14px; letter-spacing:2px; font-weight:normal; text-align:center;} so the font should be 'Leckerli One', cursive. yet it still looks like this. (this hi goodmorning part) am i doing something wrong?? Hello, I created a website and I have the fonts working perfectly on my computer. I noticed, though, that when it is on another computer they are either WAY smaller or WAY bigger than on mine. After some exploration I noticed that the font size on IE effects the size on my website... is there a simple peice of coding that can fix this? Thanks Ryan In my website there is an option of font size and when click it will change the font of all the text on that page according to the font the user pick.... how will I do that? I have a website and i want to put the lyrics to Romanian songs on it but to see the Romanian letters you have to have the font installed on the computer. Is there anyway to make the Romanian letters show up on the website without having each viewer install the font on there computer? I am setting up a newsletter.I have validated it and have this one annoying error. document type does not allow element "P" here; missing one of "APPLET", "OBJECT", "MAP", "IFRAME", "BUTTON" start-tag Now, I dont want to use css since as im not sure how many email programs will pick it up..so to be safe im using just the basic font tag system. I get the above error from this example. <font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"> <P>Testing testing </> </font> I also tried putting a style in the body but the outlook doesnt pick it up,well mine anyways since its outlook 2000. any advice thanks I know this must be a simple process but I cant figure it out. Yes I did try the search function, but obviously not that well or I would have found this At any rate, do I have to load them all in a special file than connect it through like a CSS sheet or something to that affect? This is all very new and Ive read a bit so I think I can keep up. Im not too sure where this should go or how feaable this is to do but ill try. Ive used a custom font called "Bauer". Obviously everyone doesnt have this font and ive heard it is possible to upload the font and have it auto download to the fonts folder. Is this possible and if so how is the best way to do this? Can I use a font from a folder on my site? This way if people do not have the font it is still visible. One of the fonts I am using is Calligraph421 BT and not sure if it is of a common font family. Thx! |
