CSS @font-face not working with Firefox, but working with Chrome and IE

by

The following code works in Google Chrome beta as well as IE 7. However, Firefox seems to have a problem with this. I’m suspecting it to be a problem of how my CSS files are included, cause I know Firefox is not too friendly about cross-domain imports.

But this is all just static HTML and there’s no question of cross-domain.

On my landing-page.html I do a CSS import like so:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2856502/css/main.css" type="text/css" media="screen, projection" />

Within the main.css I have another imports like so:

@import url("reset.css");
@import url("style.css");
@import url("type.css");

and within the type.css I have the following declarations:

@font-face {
    font-family: "DroidSerif Regular";
        src: url("font/droidserif-regular-webfont.eot");
        src: local("DroidSerif Regular"), 
                url("font/droidserif-regular-webfont.woff") format("woff"), 
                url("font/droidserif-regular-webfont.ttf")     format("truetype"), 
                url("font/droidserif-regular-webfont.svg#webfontpB9xBi8Q")     format("svg"); 
    font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; }
@font-face {
    font-family: "DroidSerif Bold";
    src: url("font/droidserif-bold-webfont.eot");
    src: local("DroidSerif Bold"), 
        url("font/droidserif-bold-webfont.woff") format("woff"), 
        url("font/droidserif-bold-webfont.ttf") format("truetype"), 
        url("font/droidserif-bold-webfont.svg#webfontpB9xBi8Q") format("svg");
    font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; }

body { font-family: "DroidSerif Regular", serif; }
h1 { font-weight: bold; font-family: "DroidSerif Bold", serif; }

I have a directory called “font” in the same location as type.css. This font directory contains all the woff/ttf/svg files etc.

I’m stumped on this one. It works in Chrome and IE but not on Firefox. How is this possible? What am I missing?
