Many Thanks for that list Pat I read around and tried some suggestions like Trebuchet and Baskerville but CSStool had never heard of them anyhow I am just going font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif, serif; I like Tahoma on my machine and without it san-serif is not bad I suppose I don't need serif but I've left it as a reminder I just want to be fairly vanilla - I don't think I need any fancy fonts Thanks to all for the explanations Ron Lankshear -Sydney NSW (from London-Shepherds Bush/Chiswick) try my links http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~lankshear/ On 2011-03-01 11:01 PM, Pat Geary wrote: > A few more resources: > > http://www.w3.org/Style/Examples/007/fonts > > http://www.w3schools.com/CSS/pr_font_font-family.asp > > http://www.devlounge.net/design/better-font-families-in-css > > http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/09/22/complete-guide-to-css-font-stacks/ >
