Cascading Style Sheets, CSS, work well if they are use properly. If the ones
for Fairuse are like the ones for NYLXS then they are probably a bit
convaluted and heavy.
The browser display is another issue, fonts and spacing are weighted
differently from operating systems ad can appear to make things visually
different. This will hold true even more if you are using fonts that are not
specific to the OS or loaded on the machine.
