Firstly, I get the feeling that the FONT tag is generally frowned-upon by many in the "strict HTML compliance" community. I get the impression that using CSS instead is more desirable. Nevertheless, I still use FONT myself (my reasons for that are at the end of this email). Anyhow, I notice that you specify the "Arial" font. However, though I haven't been able to verify this personally, apparently the "Arial" rendering on Macs is pretty nasty. And, as such, it's recommended that you list other font alternatives in your FONT tag. For instance: <FONT FACE="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica">... More about this is font problem summarized here: http://users.hit.net/~bobbau/platforms/MacArialFonts/ So, that's my comment about your HTML code ;). But, I'd also like to briefly talk about the FONT tag in general, and why I use it. I would really like to use CSS in my pages, but it seems that Netscape and IE render font sizes differently (arghh!). Is there some solution around this, so that the fonts appear the same size on both Netscape and IE, while still using style sheets?
