    difference viewing a website on mac from pc

    Hi
    I just made my first website, I used a font called noserif in frontpage when I was making it and it looked fine in internet explorer once it was all uploaded, but when I looked at it later on a mac half the text was in times new roman and the hyperlinks were underlined, even though I had selected all the text not to be underlined.
    Can anyone help me please or have ideas on how to fix it?
    I've since changed all text to arial but I think the problem is still there.
    Thanks

    also, I don't really want to keep the font as arial, what is the best way to choose a font that won't cause the same problems? Thanks

    You have to specify fonts which are available on both the Mac an PC systems... noserif isn't available on the mac.

    Try using a font which is available on both systems
