Re: PHPShop v2 is a cake app!

Hi Brendon,

I think I might have an answer to what is happening with the font.

It appears that Windows does not come with the "Lucida Grande" font,
and that font is a standard Apple's font found on the Mac OS.

When I installed Safari from Apple on my Windows XP computer. That
browser installed the "Lucida Grande" font but there appears to be
compatibility problems with the font. While it renders fine in Safari
and IE it does not render correctly in Firefox.

Windows users who have Firefox and visit that page will see one of the
other fonts from the CSS, unless like me, they have installed Safari
from Apple on their computer, then it will render with the "Lucida
Grande" which is handled poorly on Windows.

I found some links that support my idea that this is a problem caused
by installing Safari, and not really a problem with the http://www.phpshop.org
website.
