Hi shiyou0130011,

¿Could you please provide the web page?

Thanks in advance, Flor.

This is my sample page: https://codepen.io/Shiyou/pen/EBZWrw

Accroding to wikipedia, It should look like

“‘zh’”
「『zh-Hant』」
“‘zh-Hans’”
「『ja』」
«“el”»
“‘en’”
««fr»»

Hi shiyou0130011,

I see what you mean and Chrome shows the special character without a problem. Thanks so much for the link, it was very helpful. However, I have to mark this as a duplicate of bug 1421938. Please do check it out because it's been discussed thoroughly.

Best regards and thanks, Flor.
