SuSE 10.0 x86_64. The behaviour described below can be seen in any browser I tried so far - firefox 1.5.0.7, Opera 9, Mozilla, Konqueror, even IE under wine:
Looking at this page: http://www.testprepreview.com/modules/basicoperations.htm the 3rd and the 5th box are not displayed correctly: the misplaced character is the division sign, i.e. the 3rd question should look like: (9 : 3) x (8 : 4), but instead the division sign, something like comma is displayed ",".
On windows all is correct, both in IE and firefox.
So, I downloaded the .js file, which generates the boxes: http://www.testprepreview.com/modules/basicoperations.js
Reading it, shows that they force Symbol font for this signs. So, I copied from my windows installation this Symbol.ttf font and installed it on SuSE, using ControlCenter/FontInstaller/Administrator mode.
Now, I see the font, I can use it in lets say OO, it is listed with fc-list, but ... this still does not fix the display of that page in the browsers. And yes - I did restart tne browsers. Actually I did restart X as well, just in case.
Any idea what should I do next?
Well Sunny, I know this won't help you, but I get the same thing you describe. Glad I don't have to deal with it. Bob S.
