Yes they are. And they differ from my previous test. unicode-example-plane1.html =========================== IE 6.0.2600.0000.xpclient.010817-1148: - All characters are correctly displayed (as far as I can tell, i. e. Etruscan and Gothic have the correct characters, Deseret and Tengwar apparently have the correct script). - The writing direction is alright. Opera 6.0, Build 1010: - All characters are correctly displayed (same proviso as above). This works only when the font for "normal" Text is explicitely set to Code2001, i. e., Opera apparently ignores the font-family from the embedded CSS statements. - Every single Etruscan word is (erroneously) written LTR, while the overall writing direction in the Etruscan table cells is RTL. I have tried various combinations of RLO/LRO characters, HTML Dir attributes for the Td element, and CSS Dir attributes (as given in the HTML source) -- to no avail. Apparently, Opera misinterprets the RLO/LRO characters, and ignores the HTML, and CSS Dir attributes. Netscape 6.2: - All plane-1 characters are replaced with question marks. - The RLO, and LRO, characters are replaced with question marks, in a different (sans-serif) font. - Unexpectedly, the MIDDLE DOT in the Etruscan�Name cell is also replaced with a question mark! Even if you replace the "·" NCR with a "·" entity, the MIDDLE DOT remains a question mark. If you replace it with a B7 byte (MIDDLE DOT in ISO 8859-1), however, it will be displayed as intended, in spite of the "char- set=x-user-defined" specification. - The general writing direction is alright. unicode-plane1-utf8.html ======================== IE 6.0.2600.0000.xpclient.010817-1148: - All plane-1 characters are replaced with WHITE SQUARES. - The writing direction is alright. Opera 6.0, Build 1010: - Etruscan and Gothic are correctly displayed; Deseret and Tengwar are replaced with weird glyphs I do not recognize. - Every single Etruscan word is (erroneously) written LTR, while the overall writing direction in the Etruscan table cells is RTL. Netscape 6.2: - All plane-1 characters are replaced with double question marks. - The general writing direction is alright. Best wishes, Otto Stolz
