Hi Everyone ...

What is the best font to use in a website? Something that is easy to read.

Thanks...

Audrey

Arial -

Everyone's got it, and it is easy to read.

Sans-serif fonts are usually thought to be the easiest to read when viewing text on a video screen.

It's also best to declare the font style you want to use in a CSS file, and be sure to include OS variant names such as in the example below:

{font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;}
