    Thank you for your tests. I've retested with IE6 on Opera7 on W2K

    IE6: The complete syllable comes out blue
    Opera: The characters come out in the wrong order (both
    styled and unstyled!)

    Can you please tell me which fonts you are using? And have you
    added complex script support to NT4?

    I think this is only good for Version 4 browsers and they will break
    less subtle.
