Neither &mdash and &#8212 nor &ndash and &#8211 display the correct characters under linux. (Nav 4.51 displays the dashes by number but not by character entity.)

Still and issue
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Target Milestone: M11
Changed URL, marking assigned, m11. I see the bug, the problem is that the arguments to XFillRectangle() (gdk_draw_rectangle() actually) are overflowing at -(2^15) and +(2^16) cause of the 'unsigned int' limit of x windows. So, im going to add some code to clamp all arugments to X lib functions.

Status: ASSIGNED → NEW
disregard the last comment, it was mistakenly added to the bug. reassign to waqar. waqar: here's a chance to dig into gfx code. Probably something to do with fonts on X. Check what 4.5 does to be sure.
