Please post the URL so that we can check what really happens. I suspect the quotation of the error or warning message isn't accurate, but even if it is, it isn't sufficient for an analysis. > But when I delete 'arial, ' it is OK. That sounds strange indeed. > So the 'unknown value' is arial, but this is a standard font... It's not a standard font in any way relevant to the CSS specification or the CSS "validator". You can use any name (satisfying certain syntactic criteria) wherever CSS allows a font name, whether the universe contains a font with that name or not. -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
