@font-face works in Safari but not Firefox?

[Anonymous]

Hi,
i got the @font-face working in Safari and until recently also in Firefox, but suddenly the alternate fonts are displayed (only in FF) and i cant find a solution for it:

Code:

@font-face {
font-family: la;
src: url(http://somesite.com/la.otf);
}

Can anyone help?

What is your code for attaching the font to an element.

font-family: la,verdana;

thanks for the super fast reply!

Make sure your @font-face comes first, but the reason is probably because your url to the file doesn’t have apostrophes in it.
===> src: url(‘http://somesite.com/la.otf‘);

Solved:
I just did a fresh install of firefox in a virtual machine and it worked just fine! Seems to be some kind of weird caching problem ( cleared every cache from within the app )

Thank god, never had that before!

Yeah, firefox has some weird caching issues. You’ll get them sometimes.
