 * So here is what happened with me. I went into the get_javascript.php file and
   found the WebFontConfig code.
 *     ```
       WebFontConfig = {
       	// google: { families: [ 'Yanone Kaffeesatz:400,200', 'Gruppo', 'Droid Sans:normal,bold' ] },
       	google: { families: " . $google_fonts_js . " },
       	fontactive: function(fontFamily, fontDescription) {
       		// Avoids 'FOUC' - Flash of unstyled content in Firefox, Set 'body { opacity: 0 }' in CSS stylesheet
       		jQuery('body').css('opacity', 1);
       		bfa_equal_columns();
       	}
       };
       ```
   
 * I edited it to read:
 *     ```
       WebFontConfig = {
       	google: { families: [ 'Yanone Kaffeesatz:400,200', 'Gruppo', 'Droid Sans:normal,bold' ] },
   
       	fontactive: function(fontFamily, fontDescription) {
       		// Avoids 'FOUC' - Flash of unstyled content in Firefox, Set 'body { opacity: 0 }' in CSS stylesheet
       		jQuery('body').css('opacity', 1);
       		bfa_equal_columns();
       	}
       };
       ```
   
 * After saving I reloaded my site and it finally had the correct font, but it was
   not the right weight. The font displayed as a thin line instead of the bold font
   it should be. So then I reverted the WebFontConfig code back to the original 
   code as shown above. I then went and reloaded my website and – shazam – the font
   flickered and then loaded correctly.
 * I then went to the Bytesforall Montezuma sample page and that also loaded correctly
   for the first time. So somehow after changing the code and getting the font to
   load (albeit not the right weight) it was then loading ok, but still with the
   flicker issue.
 * I then managed to get to a friends place and use their computer. They have Windows
   8 running and had never used the IE before. I went to my website and the font
   was again not loading and looked the same as before. I then tried the Bytesforall
   Montezuma sample page and it flickered for a long while and then loaded correctly.
   I then reloaded my website and it also loaded correctly after a long flicker.
 * So this whole thing has me baffled. I am not experienced enough to understand
   what is going on with this and I have no idea about using jscript or any of that
   stuff. What I do see is an obvious issue with this font loading correctly. In
   any browser there seems to be a bothersome flicker and in IE it has real problems.
 * I really like the looks of this theme, but the font issue really gives me second
   thoughts about continuing with it. I didn’t have a problem with this until I 
   just recently updated to the latest version of Montezuma. So perhaps I need to
   try and find the previous version and see what changed to cause this problem.
 * Also, I would be asking for help on the Bytesforall site, but I am currently 
   in a country where they have blocked access to the support section. Any help 
   is much appreciated.

 * Seems the problem is with the Google Fonts (“Yanone Kaffeesatz”, sans-serif) 
   as you mentioned. In the “Add Google Fonts” menu under “CSS Settings” in the “
   Montezuma Options” area the default entry is “Yanone+Kaffeesatz:400,200”. I deleted
   that entry and then checked the website in my other browsers. They all had the
   same problem as the IE browser. I then added the entry back in and the only browser
   that still had problems was IE. For some reason IE does not get that font, and
   even in the other browsers it takes a moment to correct to the right font.
 * So I am wondering what I need to add to have IE find that font and maybe even
   help the other browsers find it more quickly.
 * The below errors are what I believe is the issue with IE:
 * CSS3117: @font-face failed cross-origin request. Resource access is restricted.

 * Thank you for your attention to this. Just a quick answer – yes, there are many
   other Montezuma sites I have viewed that have the same layout issue. Others don’t
   and I am starting to wonder if it’s just the sites that still have the original
   settings that are having a problem. Google fonts? I have seen something about
   loading them and have considered doing that. I will need to read more about that.
 * I really do appreciate your help.

 * Unfortunately I have tried all of those and still have the same issue. I’m sure
   it’s something simple but I have not been able to find the answer after much 
   searching. I’m just concerned that others will have the same problem viewing 
   my website that I have.
 * I think the most interesting point for me is that other browsers also show the
   same incorrect layout for a fraction of a second before correcting and displaying
   everything properly.

 * Yes I have checked using different settings with F12 and even uninstalled IE10
   and checked in IE9 before reinstalling IE10 again. The results were always the
   same. Very confused.

 * Here is a link to a screenshot of what the Bytesforall Montezuma theme preview
   looks like on Explorer for me.
