前些天看到阿捷提到xhtml验证的问题,说明字体最后必须以sans-serif(无衬角字体,简单地理解就是中文的黑体,文字笔划末端结束嘎然而止,而不是拐来拐去)这样的字体类别作为结束。几天又看到这个,这样的字体类型名
不能加引号。前些天,我遇到过这个问题,当时也没仔细看,原来是加引号的问题。
原文还提到了cursive fantasy monospace这三个css字体分类,这我倒是第一次听说。

CSS的font-family
通过CSS Validator发现自己写的css中一个错误,就是generic font family是作为关键字的,因此不能用引号。
这几个关键字是 serif, sans-serif, cursive, fantasy, monospace
下面是一个示例:
body {
font-family: "Geneva", "Arial", "Helvetica", sans-serif;
}
下面引自 http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/fonts.html#generic-font-families
指出了一些常用的字体属于哪一类。

Generic font families
Generic font families are a fallback mechanism, a means of preserving some of the style sheet author's intent in the worst case when none of the specified fonts can be selected. For optimum typographic control, particular named fonts should be used in style sheets.
All five generic font families are defined to exist in all CSS implementations (they need not necessarily map to five distinct actual fonts). User agents should provide reasonable default choices for the generic font families, which express the characteristics of each family as well as possible within the limits allowed by the underlying technology.
User agents are encouraged to allow users to select alternative choices for the generic fonts.
serif
Glyphs of serif fonts, as the term is used in CSS, have finishing strokes, flared or tapering ends, or have actual serifed endings (including slab serifs). Serif fonts are typically proportionately-spaced. They often display a greater variation between thick and thin strokes than fonts from the 'sans-serif' generic font family. CSS uses the term 'serif' to apply to a font for any script, although other names may be more familiar for particular scripts, such as Mincho (Japanese), Sung or Song (Chinese), Totum or Kodig (Korean). Any font that is so described may be used to represent the generic 'serif' family.
Examples of fonts that fit this description include:
Latin fonts Times New Roman, Bodoni, Garamond, Minion Web, ITC Stone Serif, MS Georgia, Bitstream Cyberbit
Greek fonts Bitstream Cyberbit
Cyrillic fonts Adobe Minion Cyrillic, Excelcior Cyrillic Upright, Monotype Albion 70, Bitstream Cyberbit, ER Bukinst
Hebrew fonts New Peninim, Raanana, Bitstream Cyberbit
Japanese fonts Ryumin Light-KL, Kyokasho ICA, Futo Min A101
Arabic fonts Bitstream Cyberbit
Cherokee fonts Lo Cicero Cherokee
sans-serif
Glyphs in sans-serif fonts, as the term is used in CSS, have stroke endings that are plain -- without any flaring, cross stroke, or other ornamentation. Sans-serif fonts are typically proportionately-spaced. They often have little variation between thick and thin strokes, compared to fonts from the 'serif' family. CSS uses the term 'sans-serif' to apply to a font for any script, although other names may be more familiar for particular scripts, such as Gothic (Japanese), Kai (Chinese), or Pathang (Korean). Any font that is so described may be used to represent the generic 'sans-serif' family.
Examples of fonts that fit this description include:
Latin fonts MS Trebuchet, ITC Avant Garde Gothic, MS Arial, MS Verdana, Univers, Futura, ITC Stone Sans, Gill Sans, Akzidenz Grotesk, Helvetica
Greek fonts Attika, Typiko New Era, MS Tahoma, Monotype Gill Sans 571, Helvetica Greek
Cyrillic fonts Helvetica Cyrillic, ER Univers, Lucida Sans Unicode, Bastion
Hebrew fonts Arial Hebrew, MS Tahoma
Japanese fonts Shin Go, Heisei Kaku Gothic W5
Arabic fonts MS Tahoma
cursive
Glyphs in cursive fonts, as the term is used in CSS, generally have either joining strokes or other cursive characteristics beyond those of italic typefaces. The glyphs are partially or completely connected, and the result looks more like handwritten pen or brush writing than printed letterwork. Fonts for some scripts, such as Arabic, are almost always cursive. CSS uses the term 'cursive' to apply to a font for any script, although other names such as Chancery, Brush, Swing and Script are also used in font names.
Examples of fonts that fit this description include:
Latin fonts Caflisch Script, Adobe Poetica, Sanvito, Ex Ponto, Snell Roundhand, Zapf-Chancery
Cyrillic fonts ER Architekt
Hebrew fonts Corsiva
Arabic fonts DecoType Naskh, Monotype Urdu 507
fantasy
Fantasy fonts, as used in CSS, are primarily decorative while still containing representations of characters (as opposed to Pi or Picture fonts, which do not represent characters). Examples include:
Latin fonts Alpha Geometrique, Critter, Cottonwood, FB Reactor, Studz
monospace
The sole criterion of a monospace font is that all glyphs have the same fixed width. (This can make some scripts, such as Arabic, look most peculiar.) The effect is similar to a manual typewriter, and is often used to set samples of computer code.
Examples of fonts which fit this description include: Latin fonts Courier, MS Courier New, Prestige, Everson Mono
Greek Fonts MS Courier New, Everson Mono
Cyrillic fonts ER Kurier, Everson Mono
Japanese fonts Osaka Monospaced
Cherokee fonts Everson Mono
