[buug] symbol font in mozilla

[Ian Zimmerman]

At the last meeting, I posed the question: how might the following
non-compliant HTML be rendered in Mozilla (and its derivates like
Netscape 6)?

<font face="symbol">ab</font>

A _lot_ of pages out there use this, unfortunately, expecting the
browser to display Greek alpha and beta glyphs.

The answer (such as it is, "workaround" is a better word) can be found
at
