Google Webfonts not loading in Firefox 7.0.1 on Mac
I noticed that Google's Webfont are not loading on Firefox 7.0.1 for Mac. Seems to be working fine on PC and other browsers though.
The request for the .woff file never ends loading; however I don't get any error.
Is this a known issue, and is there something I can do to solve the problem?
Thanks!

I also experienced this problem yesterday but it appears to have corrected itself today. It must have been something on Google's end?
Okay, so I am attempting to use a webfont on my site. I have all the code correct, as far as I know, and it works great in Safari and Chrome.
It also works great on Firefox, but only when I navigate the home page first. If I navigate right to another page on my website, the font doesn't load. The source path is correct and each page has a CSS tag in the head of each page.
So, if I navigate to my home page (example.com/index.htm) the font loads on that page and all other pages that I navigate to within my site. If I navigate to a deeper page on my site (example.com/page/html/index.html), then the default font shows until I click on my homepage and then back to whatever other pages I have on there.
Any ideas?
Again, the src links in the CSS @font-face are correct. In Safari and Chrome, the webfont loads when I navigate to a deeper rooted page on my website, but not on Firefox.
I know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but it is really bugging me out. Plus, there is a chance that someone will bookmark a page other than my homepage, and I would like for it to be rendered as it was designed. Thanks.
Are you using an absolute path to the font file or a relative path(../)?
You will have to use a relative path.
Otherwise you need to send special HTTP headers
