When viewing http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=1418 (and other pages in the past that I don't have the URLs for at the moment) the degree signs are replaced by micro signs. A clipped screenshot of this is available here: http://www.ysolde.ucam.org/~jdamery/bts/micro-celcius.png The degree sign displays correctly in the View Source window: http://www.ysolde.ucam.org/~jdamery/bts/micro-celcius-source.png My font settings are like this: http://www.ysolde.ucam.org/~jdamery/bts/micro-celcius-fonts.png however the bug still occurs in safe-mode with PANGO disabled, so I don't think it's purely a font settings-related issue. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enter above webpage URL in location box 2. Wait for page to load 3. Look at temperatures Actual Results: Temperatures are shown with micro signs. Expected Results: Temperatures should be shown with degree signs. The Debian bug report for this is at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=481886
Cannot reproduce this issue on 3.0 RC1: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US rv:1.9) Gecko/2008051202 Firefox/3.0
