160887 - Text doesn't display italicized when it contains accented characters

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Internationalization, defect)

Description

[Greg K.]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020803
BuildID:    2002080303

When an HTML I element contains accented characters, no text within the I
element is displayed italicized.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Access the testcase (to be attached shortly).

Actual Results:  The I element containing only US-ASCII characters italicized,
but the I element containing accented ISO 8859-1 characters didn't.

Expected Results:  Text in both I elements should have been italicized.

I'm not sure why one displays antialiased and the other doesn't, either.
Separate bug?

Note this bug first appeared in FizzillaCFM/2002080203. It was not in
2002-08-01-03-trunk.

Reconfirmed using Mac/2002080208/9.2.2. Setting OS to Mac System 9.x.

I viewed the page on MacOSX and it looks ok (italicized).
ruixu: is it MacOS9 specific?  If so, then please assign to nhotta.

It sure doesn't work for me using FizzillaCFM/2002080303.

it looks ok on JA MacOS 9.1 with branch build 2002080509.

Works for me on 08-05 branch build / Mac 9.2.2.
Notice, the user agent string is for Mac OS X in reporter's original report,
probably on trunk build.  But I don't see it on both branch and trunk build /
Mac 10.1.5..

Problem is still evident using FizzillaCFM/2002080508.

Any thoughts on this one, [e-mail]? It showed up about the same time
MathML went in.

[Niklas Dougherty]

See bug 162221 (Mac OS X, same problem).

Are these bugs still there? They should be gone by now.

WorksForMe using FizzillaCFM/2002081503. Thanks, [e-mail]. Do you
know which bug's fix would have taken care of this?

bug 161481 -- it has shown that the ATSUI fallback has a number of worries.

Resolving WFM per comment 15.

Verified as such.
