696642 - Not all scripts appear in the font selection dialog

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 556237

(Firefox :: Settings UI, defect)

Description

[Amir Aharoni]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Ubuntu; X11; Linux x86_64; rv:9.0a2) Gecko/20111021 Firefox/9.0a2
Build ID: 20111021043849

Steps to reproduce:

I wanted to define fonts for Lao, Saurashtra, and Thaana - three scripts that are supported in Unicode.


Actual results:

I could only define fonts for one "user-defined" language.


Expected results:

I should have been able to define a font for each of these scripts. The font list should be oriented to the complete list of scripts supported in Unicode ( http://www.unicode.org/charts/ ) or to ISO 15924 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_15924 ).

This sounds like an example of what I filed bug 556237 to address; see the original comment there for more details.
