Name of fonts?

Post by Trumpton »

When we type our postings in the white box the font is different when it appears after clicking the preview or post button. Anyone know what is the name of these two different fonts?

The one which we use to type looks like Arial - perhaps I'm wrong?

I used to have a plugin for Firefox that let me view the .css of pages, but since my pc upgrade and complete reinstall of XP, I've not downloaded it again, and I can only view the html.

Monsieur Jacques will know.

No fever, shivers or headaches today........just a pesky cough that's keeping me awake.

Yes Arial and Georgia, these are used mainly because every printer and every system should have them preloaded.
PEOPLE think Stephen Hawking is so clever, but when you ask him a question and he is typing in the answer on his little screen, how do we know he isn't just looking up the answer on the Internet?
