    Default Changing Default Font

    Hi,

    I want to change the font on my site so that it is consistent throughout. I want to use arial but where and how do I change the current default (times new roman?).

    I have used arial (i think!) in all the text I have added/changed etc through the admin panel but I want everything else the same as well, eg header titles, category titles etc etc.

    Also, how do I move the banner boxes on the right hand side to the left as I don't want anything on the right hand side.

    Thanks

    Anna

    Default Re: Changing Default Font

    In your stylesheet -


    body {
    margin: 0;
    font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 62.5%;
    color: #000000;
    background-image: url(/includes/templates/classic/images/tc-BG1.gif);
    }

    Default Re: Changing Default Font

    Thanks for helping me again stevesh!

    I can't believe how easy that was lol.

    Hopefully if you are still watching this thread you can help with something else. How can I get the whole "middle table" to move down so it doesn't go right to the top of the page, if you know what I mean. If you see my site, you will notice the bottom of the table stops short of the bottom and I would like the top like that as well.

    Hope you can help.

    Thanks.

    Anna

    On second thought, yes, I do.

    If you mean you want the blue background to show at the top of the browser window, add some margin-top to the same body element.

    Default Re: Changing Default Font

    Thank you! Another easy one.

    Although no matter how high a number I put in it didn't move much though, then noticed that all other references to sizes on the style sheet had the letters "em" next to it, so I just added the "em" (whatever that means) and voila, it worked.

    Thanks for your help.

    Cheers
    Anna
