Hello golinux,

I know that your problem is about font rendering. I should have clearly
written that instead of wrote "accessing".

Below are the exact same screenshots as yours that I took using 3
browsers on my PC.

https://minifora.eu/public/images/firefox_v36.0.4.png
https://minifora.eu/public/images/chromium_v37.0.2062.120.png
https://minifora.eu/public/images/opera_v12.16.png

The only different is on Opera v12.16. There is no "Type here ..."
message. But all of those 3 browsers rendered the fonts very well. All 3
browsers use their default settings, e.g. on Firefox the setting for
"Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
is checked. That is why I was curious and I thought that I missed
something obvious.

FYI, I am interested to know about the rendering issues on browsers as I
am trying to build my own web site (the one above).

Cheers,

Anto
