I don't like this idea because if front ends can detect non-existence of glyphs, they could be doing some transliteration. In this case, replacing the gylphs with "V" and ">". I think a polygon plot is the best solution for now. We'll need to sort out how we're going to do this stuff properly when it comes time to implement HTML5 Canvas. One idea we've had is to use libnsfb to draw canvas bitmaps, but anti-aliasing needs added to libnsfb. -- Michael Drake (tlsa) http://www.netsurf-browser.org/
