Any CSS experts?

I'm downloading Virtualbox, thanks. VWWare seems to want me to give them money for theirs, I'm not sure they're aware that I'm parsimonious.

Virtual box is nice. If you want to try VMWare again, get VMWare Player or VMWare Server. Both are free downloads... though I think they require an email for server and then email you the key. Been a while. VMWare workstation costs... which sounds odd with teh naming convention Workstation vs Server.

Thanks, I think I'll try VMWare Player also.

 

<edit>Still no go with the embedded font in Linux/Opera. FF won't open, stupid "Firefox is already running" bug. <_<

 

<further edit.> I get these errors when using a CSS level 3 validator:

 

Parse error url("http://mysite.com/georgia.ttf");

Parse error format("truetype")

Parse error }

Your code...

<style type="text/css">
@font-face {
font-family: "GeorgiaRegular","Georgia","Times New Roman",serif;
src: local("Georgia Regular"), local("Georgia"), url("http://howlandhomesteadfarm.com/georgia.ttf"); url("http://www.howlandhomesteadfarm.com/georgia.ttf");  format("truetype");
}
</style>

 

Well... you have the same url twice... assuming those are supose to be different, you need a comma and not a semicolon after the first URL. There also should not be a comma or semicolon between the src and the format.

 

Also, make sure your filenames specified are capitalized exactly like the file.

 

Try this...

<style type="text/css">
@font-face {
  font-family: 'GeorgiaRegular', 'Georgia', "Times New Roman", 'serif';
  src: local("Georgia Regular"), local('Georgia'), url("http://howlandhomesteadfarm.com/georgia.ttf") format("truetype");
}
</style>

[Phil]

OK, I'll try those changes. The 2 URLs are essentially absolute and relative paths to the font file. Thanks.
