    <pre><code>a, h1, h2, h3, div, span td[style] {font-family:'Tahoma2';} !important @font-face { font-family: 'Tahoma2'; src: url('http://***.com/font.otf') format('otf'), !important src: url('http://***.com/font.ttf') format('truetype'); !important } </code></pre> <p>I am appending CSS to my profile page on a website, using the provided custom CSS tool, however, as I was customising various things, I discovered this problem. When I put in the above code, all the text that SHOULD be Tahoma2, ends up as Times New Roman, which I am assuming means it is having trouble finding the font from the url (I hid the URL for privacy reasons), especially as when I change the top line to say 'Tahoma' it sets the whole page to tahoma. Would someone please tell me where the GLARING error in my code is, as I can't find it. (BTW, I know important shouldn't be used, but I had to override the source page's CSS in a few places.)</p> <p>Any help is greatly appreciated,</p> <p>Sleumas</p> <p>EDIT</p> <p>After some more editing, I used the solution provided by Damien Overeem, but then, in the console, I got this message (firefox)</p> <p>downloadable font: download not allowed (font-family: "tahoma2" style:normal weight:normal stretch:normal src index:2): content blocked source: www.mysite.com/fonts/celestia.ttf</p> <p>and the same for the woff</p> <p>does anyone know why? is this sanitisation, or a problem with my hosting, it is on my own private apache server, just as a file in the /var/www/fonts directory</p> <p>Please help!</p>

    1. COFirst step would be to check your console's (firebug, chrome's ctrl+shift+c) network tab and see if your font file is actually being loaded. It could in example be that your webserver (ie microsoft IIS does this), denies the font mime types.

    3. CO1) !important on line 1 should be inside the brackets 2) do you need 2 important with that src attribute? try to remove the first one 3) place the font-face before referencing to it. 4) try without format()

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
