[thelist] forcing a website font

[Diane Soini]

I can't recall exactly how weft works, (because it turned out for our 
project PDF was a better solution so I've had no reason to look at weft 
again) but I do recall that there was some css you had to use. So, why 
not just use css to do what you are looking for. Set the alternate 
fonts first in your css, then use the weft css after. Browsers that do 
not understand the weft instructions will ignore them and default to 
the original css styles.

If that's not gonna do it, just look for some javascript to do browser 
detection in general, then document.write() out the weft related html 
instructions. You should have no trouble finding general browser 
detection scripts out there.
