Also worth noting, with CJK text, in the absence of css specifying a font, the browser will chose the font based on langauge of the text. If the language of the text is not indicated then IE will try ot use a Japanese font to display CJK, Opera uses a Korean font instead, and I forget what Firefox does.

Firefox Win takes the fonts as specified in the browser preferences (Content>Font &colors> advanced). If none is available (ie no East-Asian language pack installed) then all madness is possible. As I said, I've actually never seen what happens on a Win PC that lacks the East-Asian language pack ('cause all PC's here in town have it installed).

(hence, out of curiosity, if someone would be kind enough to send me a screenshot of the file I posted earlier, that would be appreciated).
