Open the test case. WebKit displays a square instead of an arrow for &uArr; Firefox displays it correctly. Version of WebKit: r14733.

I think this is a bug in AppleGothic font - it has a square as a glyph for UPWARDS DOUBLE ARROW and several other arrow-like characters. This is reproducible with other applications (I tested TextEdit and UnicodeChecker). Please file this bug via <http://bugreport.apple.com>.

Thanks, I have reported it as bug 4573436. By the way, I said that Firefox displays the arrow correctly but this is not true: it was Camino.

Marking as confirmed (although it should probably be resolved as INVALID, as the bug is outside WebKit).

(In reply to comment #6) > > *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 7053 *** While both bugs deal with Unicode arrow keys, Bug 7053 is for serif fonts while this one is for sans-serif fonts. I'm not sure they're duplicates.

The bugs might have similar causes, but AppleGothic (or any other Apple font I checked) has no problem with the rightwards arrow. I'm reopening this bug, to wait for the Radar issue progress.
