Hello, I am working on a small site and using the CSS Menus action. I haven’t worked on making the site responsive yet (not sure I will for this one).
I highlighted the menu items (Home, Itinerary, Gallery, Contact) and selected Trebuchet as the font. However when I publish the site it displays as Times Roman. I haven’t had this problem on other sites where I’ve used the CSS Menus action.
Any ideas on what I’m doing wrong? Thanks in advance.
According to the CSS specification, font names that contain spaces should be quoted (the fact that Trebuchet MS isn’t quoted seems to be a Freeway bug) - but I don’t think this is what is causing your problem because I tried publishing a test document with some Trebuchet MS text and it displayed correctly in Firefox and Safari.
You can fix the quoting problem by using Edit Font Sets to add quotes (single or double) in the Alternative Fonts column.
Looking at your site a bit more closely, I can’t see that font-family is defined for any of the navigation items - so that would explain why they are displayed as Times. But I don’t know why font-family isn’t being output if the text is styled as Trebuchet in Freeway.
Do you have anything (an Action or something else) that is post-processing the output? The CSS formatting doesn’t look like Freeway’s normal formatting.

Hi Jeremy, I tried putting “Trebuchet MS” in quotations in the font set and the problem still prevails. I tried creating a style and applying it, didn’t work. Even tried changing to Verdana which has worked on other sites. For some reason that didn’t work either-- still Times Roman. Can I give you the file to take a look?
Hi Jeremy, I fixed it. I created a new style called navtext and made it Trebuchet MS 18 point. Then I selected the type in the CSS Menu box and set it to “No style” and applied the navtext style. It took a few tries but that worked. Thanks for your help.
I’d forgotten that Freeway’s styles can sometimes get confused. Applying “No style” before restyling is a good way to fix this!
