Question

I am currently using the bulletproof syntax and converted fonts from Font-Squirrel for the fonts on
http://www.runningwithpurpose.org.nz (fonts inline css in the html – working)
http://www.runningwithpurpose.org.nz/broken (fonts in css file – not working)
.
The both methods display fontes fine on browsers other than IE which sometimes will display some or all the fonts and other times not at all (but usually not at all).
I have tried playing around with the htaccess file, using the ‘smiley’ syntax but neither worked.
However I did manage to fix it but putting the font css inline in the html file.
This is ok but I was wondering why I seem to be unable to get it working as many other people have the @font-face declarations in the css file which would be much cleaner and it used to work fine for me but doesn’t.

Any suggestions on how to get this working would be great, considering no other existing help has worked.

One of the @font-face declarations used

@font-face {
    font-family: 'Aller-Regular';
    src: url('assets/fonts/aller-regular.eot');
    src: url('assets/fonts/aller-regular.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
         url('assets/fonts/aller-regular.woff') format('woff'),
         url('assets/fonts/aller-regular.ttf') format('truetype'),
         url('assets/fonts/aller-regular.svg#Aller-Regular') format('svg');
    font-weight: normal;
    font-style: normal;
}

Answer 1

As stated in my question I was able to fix it at the time by putting the @font-face declarations inline in the html.
But now IE seems to have decided to fix itself and let me declare @font-faces in the CSS.
