Looking at the thread that William pointed at, the person asking for help gave 
no indication as to what problems he might have been encountering. Without 
specifics, the two obvious recommendations would be (i) encode the content 
using conformant UTF-8, and (ii) use conforming OpenType fonts leveraging CSS 
web font mechanisms.

Beyond that, that thread seemed not especially interesting.

This is where webfonts should be extremely useful -- I believe recent versions 
of at least Firefox, and probably other modern browsers, should support both 
webfonts and text shaping for Indic scripts by default, whether or not the 
underlying platform has the correct fonts.
