1) Use arial
2) How are you linking to the menu and template on every page? If you are just writing it out for each one, then I'll show you how you can link to the menu and other stuff that stays the same on every page dynamically.

That would be very handy, now I just copy the code and change the content.

Alright, create a page called menu.php which contains what your menu contains, so for example, I could do:
| Code: | <b>Main</b><br>
<a href="home.php">home</a><br>
<a href="news.php">news</a><br><br>
<b> The Game</b><br>
<a href="info.php">Info</a>
|
Just normal stuff like that.
Then, on each page, in the gap where the menu should be, type this:
| Code: | <?PHP
$site_root_path = './';
include ( $site_root_path . 'menu.php' );
?> |
But make sure you save the content pages as php. PHP pages support full html, but also support php when you open the tags (<?PHP ?>).
And you can do the same for the header and footer aswell.
And, are you using a style sheet?

...If you wanna have a sucky site.
Arial sucks at anything other than 10px - use Verdana or Tahoma =]

Yeah, you're right. I used to use Arial, but now I've realised how much better Verdana at 11px with line spacing in-between looks

I personally put all my text sizes in points, rather than pixels. But I do use Verdana, 10pt, usually.
