Build: Apprunner Version: 2000012402 Platforms: Mac Other Platforms: Need to check on Windows and Linux Expected Results: The entity &#153 (TM) should appear in the title. What I got: Wrong symbol is rendered instead of TM. Steps to reproduce: 1) Open attached test case. 2) TM entity appears in BODY element but not in the TITLE element.
This happens on all platforms. The truth is, we do what nav and IE do, so I don't plan to address this.

Rick, I ran this test case under Mac Comm 4.7 and Mac I.E. 4.5 which both rendered the TM entity in the title.I was expecting the same results in Apprunner.
Ahh -- on the PC the TM renders as a vertical bar in both Nav and IE. I'll ask one of our mac guys to look into the font issue.
Status: RESOLVED → REOPENED
Waqar -- this looks like a font bug on mac. Can you take a look?

I see the problem, and investigating.
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Target Milestone: M18
After investigating I found that the problem is HTMLContentSink::ReduceEntities does not convert the entities correctly to Unicode.
After talking to momoi@netscape.com and nhotta@netscape.com, it was concluded that the user should be using & trade ; entity, which is not working on the mac at this time. Naoki has a bug# 24948 that is dealing with this issue. I am resloving this bug as a invalid.
