Fonts

[Mustang]

I have been looking for a list of fonts that are installed on most computers.  I know the basic ones... Arial, Times New Roman, Tahoma, Verdana, etc... but where can I find a list of the fonts?

I am wondering because I want to be able to use a cool font on a web site I am creating, and for people to view the font, they must have the font installed.

Thanks,

One great thing about CSS is that you can put a font to display if the user doesn't have the first choice font installed. For example, you would put:

Code Select Expand

font-face: sans-serif, arial;

So then if the person doesn't have sans-serif, it will display arial. (Or at least that's how I understand it. Fatkid, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.  ;) )

Just something else to consiter, so even if they don't have the font, it can still look good.

Here is a list of very basic fonts that people will almost for sure have. Like I said above, one of these would be a good choice to put as a second of third choice if they don't have the font you want installed.

Thanks for the responses guys.

Yea Pcheats, that's how it goes with CSS and I always usually pick 2 or 3.

I will take a look at these in a bit.   ;D

Right now I am off to PM PogoPal about a name for the Freecell auto.

Freeloadin' Fanatic

Sounds good to me. I was thinking Frecell Freebie :P

[Mustang]

Hehe, yeah I have a few others but I think Freeloadin' Fanatic is the best I have though up so far.  I like the freebie one.  ;D.  

And btw, the link you posted was exactly what I was after.  Thanks.

No problem. Your welcome. Glad to help. :D

Well, it looks like I will use Comic Sans MS, Arial, and Verdana for the site I am creating.   ;D
