I had a problem where all the arial fonts in my web browser windows became italic text.

It was caused by an installation of MSAS replacing the arial.ttf font file in windows!

To fix it you open the font directory in windows and find a shortcut called menu1 which replaced the normal arial font.

Delete this. Now copy a file called menu1 from C:\Program Files\MSAS\CONFIG to the windows fonts directory. This will install the arial font (arial.ttf). When you see a message complaining arial is already installed, exit the dialogue since it’s trying to re-install the bold and italic fonts again which is not necessary.

Now the arial fonts should look ok in web pages

I was thinking about how best to revamp my pages on coding HTML and thought it would be a good idea to do a new high speed tutorial based on combining CSS and XHTML. I would leave out tables and little-used html tags from the tutorial. So people could learn the basics really quickly.

The minimum set of presentation tags may be: h1-3, p, a, br, img, div and form tags.
