Fixing FOUT (Flash Of Unstyled Type) With FOUT-B-Gone

FOUT (Flash Of Unstyled Type) is the moment where web fonts appear unstyled for a short time just before loading @font-face (in FF 3.5/3.6 and IE 7-9). Once the web page is loaded, the viewer sees unstyled fonts turn into styled ones.

In order to fix this issue, FOUT-B-Gone can be a good solution. It is a script which hides elements with custom fonts assigned to them for a defined period of time (like 200 milliseconds).

During that period, the fonts will -probably/hopefully- be loaded and the end-user won't experience FOUT.

P.S. There is also a built-in function which helps detecting whether @font-face is supported or not.
