Adding a non-standard font to Sharepoint

Question

I have a non-standard font file in .eot format and use the following CSS syntax to embed it into the master page:

@font-face
{
    font-family: Myfontfamily;
    src: url("http://server/_layouts/STYLES/Fonts/myfont.eot") format("embedded-opentype");
}

.customfont
{
    font-family: Myfontfamily;  
}

On my master page I have the following HTML:

<p class="customfont">Some random text</p>

It works fine, when used in a plain ASP.NET site (within the same IIS instance), but not in SharePoint. Custom font is not applied on the SharePoint master page. Do I need to make any additional actions for SharePoint? I also need this non-standard font to appear in the Content Editor web part, is it possible? Thx.

I'm not sure, but could you change you're URL to point to relative path? In other words try to change your url to something like ("/_layout/STYLES/fonyts/myfont.eot")
