Changing fonts in define_main_page

[dwessell]

Hi,

I'm using the admin editor to change this file, and I can't get the font to change. It accepts the color change, but not the font. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Here's the actualy HTML output:

<div id="indexDefaultMainContent" class="content">Welcome to Straight Razor Designs!

<p>Our goal is to offer you only the finest in men's wet shaving and grooming products - products that we personally have used and endorse.<p><br>

<div style="color:#95602c; font-weight:bolder; font-family:'Lucida Sans Unicode';">

font-family:'Lucida Sans Unicode'

You can not actually control the font that is seen by a users browser...
This is fully dependant upon what fonts they have available.

[dwessell]

But none of the websafe fonts that I put in there seem to make a difference Lucidia Sans, Arial, etc... Is there something that could be overriding this?

Thanks

Are you using the html editor?

[dwessell]

Are you using the html editor?

No.. I'm using the plain text editor.. <confused>

Thanks

No.. I'm using the plain text editor.. <confused>

You can either set it to always use it
Admin > config > my store > HTML Editor > set to html area

Or for one session - admin > tools > Define Pages Editor > select htmlarea from drop box
Now until you log out - it will be used over the plain text editor...

FYI - You can toggle between them in the html area nav bar by selecting the <> icon

[dwessell]

But that still leaves me with why a perfectly valid div style would be ignored? I can load the code into a seperate html file, and it processed correctly..

Thanks
David

You need to provide more detail about what it is you are seeing and a link and description of what you expected and what is there helps

i have the same problem i want to change the font size .. but i it is not found somewhere in the css file.. i tried to investigate it with firefox... and i saw this line of code.. but I can't locate it in any file

<span lang="en-US" style="font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold;">HERE IS YOUR DEFINE MAIN PAGE TEXT</span>

and this

element.style {
  font-size:11pt;
  font-weight:bold;
}

i need help on where to find or put this

I finally switched over to the HTML editor, as I didn't have time to work through this. Once I install a test site I'll try again..

I can't see why my code didn't work.. An inline div should overide any css styles, but this time it didn't..

I'll post back once I can get to it.
