Google webfonts

For some reason unknown to me, G webfonts isn't working?

The only thing I'm doing differently now to any other time I've used webfonts is I currently have my < head >< /head > tags in header.php which is called on every page, rather than calling the <head> tag on every page (but for all intents and purposes this should be handled the same by the browser anyway?). In header.php is my <link href... etc>, with the 'font-family: webfont;' applied in my main css stylesheet, pretty standard stuff.

Has anyone got any idea why it wouldn't work?

I use a google font, and I just called it by putting this

<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Allura|Cabin' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' />

into my header.inc.php

in my style.css I have like

#start h1{color:#2e6dd1;font:normal 90px Allura, Helvetica;line-height:0.9em;margin:0;padding:10px 0;text-align:center;text-shadow:0 1px 0 #fff;}

Works fine here.

Hmmm very strange. Mine's no different to yours, I've applied the font-family css to everything from 'body' to 'p' and everything in between. I'll try downloading it and see if that makes a difference...

Have you cleared your cache ?
