Special unicode characters are also not displayed properly. Even in the google results character U+200D (‍ ‍ ZERO WIDTH JOINER) shows as a box. This is some serious regression. Something similar happened before, over a year ago, but was fixed back then. Developer Tools/Elements also shows this problem. Maintainers should take a look. I think you should roll the version back to previous until regression is fixed. Yuri On 11/13/2012 21:54, Yuri wrote: > I also see this.
