That must just be what you have selected as a default in your browser.

Verdana is sans-serif, but if you have not got that, then the browser is
choosing its own.

If the page author wants a sans-serif font then they ought to set that, as
you do, by setting sans-serif in the font family. Not just hope that the
browser default is sans. I do get a sans font on your homepage BTW.

The author may not be that bothered ;-) If the reader wants sans-serif
when the page author has not elected to specify, then he knows what to do!

You could always dive into crafting the pages yourself, they aren't
overly complicated.
The difficulty there is that FP will not leave the code alone

I was thinking that FP would be dumped in favour of Notepad and a little
PHP or ASP.

Perhaps a little far in the other direction. Dreamweaver would probably
be a more realistic middle ground.

If you have a look at the screen shot I took
(http://www.internode.co.uk/temp/browser.gif) you can also see
how the font weights etc vary between Firefox (which renders them
correctly) and IE6 which gets everything too heavy.

My Mozzilla looks just like your Firefox, no surprise there. B-) I'm
confused about the LH buttons though they look the same in Mozilla,
Firefox or IE6.

Tis because FP has rendered them all as graphics and stuck em in .gif
files. e.g:

(interesting thing is that it gets the font scaling right on the graphic
version)
