Page not showing the same in IE 8


Can anyone explain to me why the font in the menu (i.e. Accessories, Children, Mens, Womens) here http://www.urlgone.com/f9d64e/ is not showing correctly in IE8. In IE8 its using Arial but in all other browsers I checked its using the @font-face font expected.


Solution

  • Yes. @font-face support is slightly different across different browsers. In particular, IE supports only embedded open-type fonts (EOT), and therefore a font-reference for this needs to be included if you are going to see your font rendered correctly in IE. There is a good, universal syntax for @font-face rules available here.
