You can *suggest* through CSS that the browser use MS Sans Serif[1], but
it is subject to several caveats:

1) The visitor has to actually *have* a font called MS Sans Serif on
their computer
2) The visitor has the ability to override any font selection you make

By all means use MS Sans Serif - that's what your designer will see,
which is the main thing. :-) Just don't expect it to be the same on
everyone else's computer. There is no possible way to make that happen.

[1] E.g. body {font-family: "MS Sans Serif", Arial, sans-serif}
