Hi,

I've developed some pages on my laptop using XP and IE6. The font I have
chosen is Bradley Hand ITC. There are thumbnail links to a larger picture us
ing
the following Javascript:

<a href="javascript:void(0);"
onclick="window.open('Images/BD001.jpg','','toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,location=
0,st
atusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=1,width=500,height=500');">

BUT, when I run this page on a machine running NT4 and does not have this fo
nt
installed, I just get normal text written on there and when I click on the
above link, the new picture is not resized to the window size, but this happ
ens
on my XP machine.

I've read some posts that I think are related, and may have something to do
with CSS, but not sure.

Please can someone help??

As you see, the number of fonts you can be sure is installed on all
computers is limited.  If you search this forum for "web safe fonts" you
will find a link to a page discussing this--it is posted multiple times
every week.

All you can do is use CSS to define a font **family** that begins with
your preferred font, if the user doesn't have that installed, the next
font will show, etc.

So:

b, p, whatever other tags {
font-family:  "Bradley Hand ITC", Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
}

would style all text in the specified tags with those fonts in that order.

Thanks for that Bonnie.

Can anyone help with the other question I had regarding resizing the image t
o shrink into a new window that is opened by clicking on a thumbnail?
