(Update: Feb/23/12) We have developed a new method to server our fonts that is better than the current @font-face and it solves the Firefox 8 issue as well. We will be introducing this to our interface for automatic generation of the correct CSS soon but until then if you need to modify your WebINK CSS please send a note to support@webink.com and we will help you.
We have identified an issue with Firefox 8.0 and our font delivery method.
We have identified an issue with Firefox 8.0 and our font delivery method.
The issue appears to effect some users installs of this version and stops fonts from rendering on the page.
A workaround is to change all of the @font-face calls from http:// to https://.
For example:
Current --
src: url('http://fnt.webink.com/wfs/?drawer=EDF5BD94-005E-4F4B-9264-488EA117B08B&font=1CDCED19-BAEA-F626-2E09-B69C785565DC');
New --
src: url('https://fnt.webink.com/wfs/?drawer=EDF5BD94-005E-4F4B-9264-488EA117B08B&font=1CDCED19-BAEA-F626-2E09-B69C785565DC');
Mozilla is aware of the issue and had a patch in the works that will be delivered to 8.0 browsers soon
