Actual Results: saw a mixture of exclamation marks and characters Expected Results: paragraphs, characters to read, some text ;) fix it dudes I want to read arabic under linux...
I believe this has been fixed by recent checkins. (I used to see a similar problem on Redhat 7.2 and no longer see it). Please retest with a current nightly build.
Worksforme linux build 2002-01-07-06
WFM Linux 20020408 CVS MArking WFM cos it does and did for bz REPORTER: If this is still a problem with a more recent build, please REOPEN this bug. Thanks for helping test mozilla.
Is bug 136101 ("Can't browse arabic page without getting lots of '?'") a DUPlicate of this one ?
dupe of bug bug 78201?
Arafat Medini, can you still reproduce this with 1.0RC1 ? If not, please set this bug to "worksforme"
This has no confirmation since the original report, and 3 WFMs, so closing. Please reopen if anyone still sees the problem with an up-to-date build.
