lisanet Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 I have tried over and over to get this to work. I know I am in over my head with this but please help. I am trying to embed my fonts and make my background images not repeat. I can do this internally and I made it work once externally but I don't know what I did right. Looking over the code doesn't seem to help much. I have index.css in the Fonts folder, the stylesheet in the directory, everything all referenced all nice, but every change I try to make is a new surprise. I have attached the stylesheet, the fonts index, and two of the test pages I was working with. The fonts appear to be embedded on one and no page at all shows up on the other. These are online as well.files.zip Quote

Ice IT Support Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 I would recommend using at least HTML4 <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> Quote
lisanet Posted June 17, 2012 Author Posted June 17, 2012 Thanks u guys for replying. I use a WYSIWYG web page editor. How do I apply the html 4 to it? Can I do that? What am I down loading here and how do I use it? Can you put the link back? Also, for the other reply, I can do this with one font like you have shown but I want to do it to cover all my fonts at once. The way I saw it explained, you index the fonts in a css file and put it in the fonts directory, then you do an external page and put in @import with reference to the fonts like I did in the code. I think I got something wrong in the assembly of the code. This is tricky but will be quite handy if I can learn it. Quote
Hairy DJ Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 WYSIWYG's are not good for CSS. The may insert <br />'s evry time you hit the return key. Try posting a link to your test page instead of a zip file and you may get more responses. Quote
