There are many fonts are available in all windows OS and in another platforms, if you are concerned of the font style to be used in your website, well you can used any of them..

You choose your own font you like then includes in the command. like for example I want to use Tahoma in my website the code goes something like this..

<font size="2" face="Tahoma"> your text goes here..</font>

so all text you typed in between the opening and the closing tag will be used Tahoma font sytle...

what do you think ??? huh.gif

Ahhh.. Ok,

In my own idea that font was depend in your computer setup, you can change that using control panel display properties but that was only work in your computer.

If you are talking about change the font style of IE or other browser, well I think that's a great idea but I don't see any website with unique font. what i know is that the display of your browser depends on how you configure your computer.

Maybe you can change that style but honestly I don't know hot to do it. maybe somebody here can help you with that...

yeah, it's defaulted to Tahoma and Trebuchet MS

you can see what they are and change them by going to Display Settings and on the Appearence tab click "advanced" and there you can scroll through each item and see what the default settings are (as long as they haven't been changed)

Bleh. I don't like comic sans... Verdana is a nice font. tongue.gif

  9. Windows Xp: Explorer.exe Crashes On Certain Accounts

    I share a Windows XP computer with two friends, and we each have our own User Account on the
    computer. Recently whenever my friends use the PC, they begin to have problems with it. For no
    reason whatsoever, Windows Explorer will crash and close all the current folders that are open. I
    went onto their User Accounts to see for myself (with permission, of course), and found that
    Explorer would crash any time I right-clicked a File, and would also crash on occasion if I clicked
    "File" on the Folder Window's Menu Bar with a file selected. It also happened on rare occasion....
