Internet Explorer has handled this correctly for a number of years. Please fix this in Firefox as well. When color changes in the middle of an Arabic word, it shouldn't disconnect letters, it should rather color them individually as found in this example for instance: http://www.submission.org/quran/reader/arabic/v-02A.htm You will notice the difference if you view this link with Internet Explorer vs. Firefox. Firefox unfortunately disconnects the letters. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to http://www.submission.org/quran/reader/arabic/v-02A.htm 2. Compare Internet Explorer vs. Firefox 3. Actual Results: Connecting Arabic letters are disconnected. Expected Results: It should not have disconnected the Arabic letters.
