I don't think that's a solution. 'Fixed' and 'monaco' are two specific fixed-width fonts and 'monospace' is the platform independent(!) generic family name. > My gripe with Sebastians page is that I CAN'T override the font settings .. not > without using the option in Firebird to scale *all* the fonts , and if I do this > , I will have to undo this when I visit the next site. I remember adjusting my font sizes in Firebird, too. Somehow the monospace font size is dependent on the overall font size (don't ask me how exactly). Took me quite a while to figure out how to make it dislay all fonts in approximately the same size. > The artwork displays fine in Mozilla Thunderbird with the same font settings. > This lead me to belive that something on Sebastians page cause the font to be > render in a bigger than normal size that make the ' char blocky I wouldn't know how. There aren't any font sizes specified in my stylesheet (except "font-size:smaller" for the footer). I rather suppose there's something wrong with Firebird's font implementation or at least a very strange way of adjusting font options. Feel free to tell me where the error in my stylesheet is (http://www.ascii-art.net/ascii.css) but I fear the declaration is correct. Sebastian :) -- _ _ _ _ _ .---------------------------.
