Hello, Arabic characters with accelerators are displayed as if they were single characters, and are not joined with the characters around them, it only happens in some GUI contols. Some GUI elements like buttons are behaving correctly, while labels in preferences, radiobuttons, and checkboxes aren't, from what I've seen in the Arabic 1.5 beta 2 build. I guess this is an underlying problem in Gecko, but I don't know exactly so I filed it here. I'll attach 2 images, showing correct behavior for "New window" and "New tab" in the "File" menu, and wrong behavior in the preferences "Tabs" tab. Notice how the accelerated character surrounded with a red box is displayed differently in the 2 images, it's joined in the first image, but not joined with the character next or previous to it in the second image, although both images have the same strings, "New window" and "New tab". I've seen this bug under Linux and Windows, couldn't test under Mac. I really hope this bug gets fixed before releasing 1.5 final, it makes reading Arabic text in GUI elements difficult. Thank you.

I just tested the testcase with firefox-3.0a8pre and, unlike firefox-2.0.0.6, the character with accelerator is shaped in both checkbox and the label, so, I guess this bug is fixed now.
