Description jtkbugz 2010-02-04 06:06:29 PST
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Load http://www.alanwood.net/demos/ent4_frame.html
2. Verify characters display
ACTUAL RESULTS:
Many symbols, mathematical symbols, and Greek letters (ex.: nabla, upsilon) does not display
Both the numbers and the names of character entities are not well supported by the browser

EXPECTED RESULTS:
Characters are displayed, at least when numbers of character entities are in use.

Not reproducible in:

  - QtWebKit trunk on Windows (week9-build) against Qt 4.6.2

Please follow the QtWebKit bug reporting guidelines when reporting bugs.

See http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/QtWebKitBugs

Specifically:

  - The 'QtWebKit' component should be used for bugs/features in the QtWebKit API layer, not to signify that the bug is specific to the Qt port of WebKit

    http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/QtWebKitBugs#Component

  - Priority is set by developers when scheduling and triaging tasks, please leave this at the default priority.

    http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/QtWebKitBugs#Priority

  - Choose a descriptive summary/title for the bug and prefix the summary with "[Qt]" if the bug only applies to the Qt-port.

I can reproduce the issue with Qt 4.7 on a N97.

Three Greek characters are not shown: theta, upsilon, and pi.

This looks like a Symbian issue, not a Qt issue, because other applications on the device cannot show those characters. For example, the old avkon-based browser show exactly the same result.

I put this task to low priority until the reporter determine if the issue is missing glyphs in Symbian or something else.
