Description Alexey Proskuryakov 2006-01-14 03:58:09 PST 
CSS fallback fonts are considered only the first time when a font family doesn't have the needed glyphs; 
the same fallback is used the next time, even if different fallback fonts were specified in CSS. A restart of 
Safari is needed to reset the cache. In the following example, Courier is used in all four lines:

<td>Courier</td><td style="font-family:Symbol,Courier">test</td></tr>
<td>Times</td><td style="font-family:Symbol,Times">test</td></tr>
<td>Monaco</td><td style="font-family:Symbol,Monaco">test</td></tr>
<td>MissingInAction</td><td style="font-family:Symbol,MissingInAction">test</td></tr>
