[thelist] forcing a website font

[Diane Soini]

I attempted weft once, but found it to be unsatisfactory. Only works in 
IE Windows.  Won't work on Macintosh or Linux. Seemed to work great on 
my computer, but when others tried my examples they didn't see the 
font. Maybe I did it wrong. It's hard to test, since you have to have 
the font to begin with, so it's not gonna fail for you. In any case, 
you have to have alternate font choices for when weft won't work, so as 
long as you're picking a decent alternative, why not just forget all 
the fuss and go with that? Most people are going to see the alternate, 
anyway. On the other hand, some people will see the pretty font, so 
maybe it's worth it anyway? Your call.
