Still have the font-family set to Wingdings and the site shows up in a
proper font in Firefox, Konqueror and Opera. The only browser that
shows an unreadable page is IE. If any one goes to the site
http://www.jlgates.com with any browser other than IE and can't read
the page let me know what browser. I am probably going to write the
pages in proper XHTML and change the font-family back to something
normal, but that probably won't happen any time soon.
