For example of the above said problem, please see this page- http://hi.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%A4%B8%E0%A4%A6%E0%A4%B8%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%AF:Hemant_wikikosh/%E0%A4%AA%E0%A4%B0%E0%A5%80%E0%A4%95%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%B7%E0%A4%A3%E0%A4%AA%E0%A5%83%E0%A4%B7%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%A0%E0%A4%97%E0%A5%88%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%AE%E0%A5%8C%E0%A4%9C%E0%A5%82%E0%A4%A6%E0%A4%AA%E0%A5%83%E0%A4%B7%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%A0%E0%A4%95%E0%A4%96%E0%A4%97
with Windows Vista and Google Chrome (My version is 16.0.912.75 m). The line which should look as:
“Hemant wikikosh/परीक्षणपृष्ठगैरमौजूदपृष्ठकखग” के लिए खोजें।
is looking as:
“ /परीक्षणपृष्ठगैरमौजूदपृष्ठकखग” के लिए खोजें।
That means text written in Roman script is invisible, although present.
While on Mozilla Firefox with Windows Vista, it is visible correctly. Same is happening on Sanskrit Wikipedia. It is a serious problem because when part of text is invisible, how can reader understand the text? Please rectify it ASAP. Thanks.

A screenshot will be helpful. I tried to reproduce this in Windows Vista and Google Chrome 12 and here is the screenshot http://crossbrowsertesting.com/users/34057/screenshot/zf8c38a33f94fc7229f3/public I dont see the problem you reported in that screenshot. But it is chrome 12 and I could not get Chrome 16 in our testing tool.

Are you still facing the problem? Please share the screenshot if so. If you can consistently reproduce it in chrome , this should be reported to upstream(chrome) with screenshot.

Sorry for late reply. The problem is there though I have switched the browser. I am not sure whether it is from Chrome's part, because on my another PC, Chrome is rendering the text fine.
