Fonts in Mozilla and Document Type

Some time in the last few months a problem poped up with the fonts in
Mozilla. These pages have run ok for years but now the fonts in the
stylesheet file will not set the fonts in Mozilla they go to the default.

I include the stylesheet with the line:
<LINK href="styles.css" type="text/css" rel="StyleSheet">

This has worked for years now I take out the line:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

and the fonts are set correctly.

Did I miss somthing.
Thank you

Hi Jerry,

From your description, some of your web page that apply some CSS style on
it used to display well(in Mozilla browser), but encounter some display
problem on Font now without any changing, correct?

Regard on this issue, if the page source and style sheet hasn't been
changed, I think there are two general points you can check:

1. You can check whether this is a client-side machine or browser specific.
Try testing it on some other boxes with Mozilla installed to see whether it
also raise such problem.

2. For server-side, one possible cause is that the certain CSS style sheet
is not correctly applied to the page. You can use some trace tools to
capture the http requests/response from browser to server and check whether
the css style sheets are correctly downloaded. If correctly downloaded, is
all other settings in style sheet working correctly(except the font
setting), for example, the border, background color ....

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng
