User Agent: Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 5.1; U; de) Presto/2.10.289 Version/12.01

Steps to reproduce:

I created a font with the name: l"l'la
I wanted to use this font in a website:
p { font-family: "l\"l'la"; }



Actual results:

Firefox can not handle fontnames which contains " and '


Expected results:

The value of font-family is defined as string. So it should be possible to use quotes inside a fontname.
Single quotes must be escaped too.
Another bug:

p { font: 12px "l\000022lala"; } 

That´s correct syntax, but doesn´t work.

Sure, all this doesn't work correctly:
<font face="Aldo's font">Aldo's font - not working</font><br>
<font face='Aldo"s font'>Aldo"s font - not working</font><br>
<font face='Aldo\'s font'>Aldo's font - not working</font><br>
<font face="Aldo\"s font">Aldo"s font -  not working</font><br>
<span style="font-family:Aldo's Font">Aldo's Font - not working</span><br>
<span style='font-family:Aldo"s Font'>Aldo's Font - not working</span><br>
