Firefox doesn't display Romanian diacritics properly (Google Fonts)

Hello,
I have a blog on Blogger, which is in Romanian. I am using Arimo (Google Font). I tested my blog on several popular browsers (Google Chrome, Opera, even Internet Explorer) to check if the diacritics are displayed properly. They work perfectly on all 3 browsers.
However, on Firefox, only two of them work Î & Â, while the other three (Ș, Ț, Ă) are replaced with another font. What could be the problem? I would love for all my visitors to see the same design, regardless of the browsers they use. Can you help? Thanks in advance.
Here's an image, to better understand my issue - http://i.imgur.com/257QyId.png

The link for my blog is http://ferdy.ro
@guigs2 - thank you filling a bug report.
@cor-el,
As you can see, if you access my blog, it displayes the Arimo font, yet three Romanian diacritics (ș, ț, ă) are displayed with the Arial font. I used the sans-serif trick in my CSS code and it sort of fixes the problem, but not entirely.
Arimo has tons of diacritics (including Romanian diacritics) and special characters, yet this issue occurs only on Firefox and Yandex (tested today), however it is displayed properly in Chrome, Opera and even Internet Explorer.
The 'Allow pages to index...' setting is already enabled on my browser. Also, the Page Inspector generates a 'Not found' for me. This is weird, if it was because of the font, then it shouldn't work on all the browsers.
If there is nothing I can about it, then I'll switch to Arial entirely or keep it this way - it's very important for me to have the same design on all of the browsers.

Safari doesn't display Cyrillic domain name correctly

Hello there,
I wonder why is that Safari doesn't display Cyrillic domain name with .укр TLD correctly, that is official Ukrainian Cyrillic TLD.
For example, if you visit the official website of the President of Ukraine, by typing: президент.укр in your Safari web-browser address bar instead you will see this: xn--d1abbgf6aiiy.xn--j1amh
On the other hand, if you visit the official website of the Russian president by typing the Cyrillic domain name with .рф TLD: президент.рф, it will be displayed correctly in Safari address bar.
For me it sounds as some form of discrimination, and I think it should be corrected ASAP.
Is there any solution to this?
This is an issue on all Safari web-browsers running on latest iOS of iPhones, iPads and iPods.

To ask Apple to fix this, you need to repost it at
http://www.apple.com/feedback
If I remember right, display of such domains in the original script may depend on whether the domain officials have policies in place to safeguard against potential confusion between names that look the same in cyrillic and latin. But it could also be a simple oversight.
Each browser may be different: Do Firefox and Chrome behave the same?

Firefox doesn't display some text on certain pages.

I've noticed that on some pages, Firefox doesn't display certain text. I have the newest version of Firefox installed and my flash and java are updated. The text displays fine on Chrome and IE. Please see my example in the screenshots of the stevenson.edu webpage. Does anybody know what I can do to fix this problem or if there is some sort of plugin I am missing to display certain content? Thanks.

Firefox Doesn't display correctly and is very laggy on sites with CloudFlare DDoS Protection

Since 35.0 and above i have been getting weird behaviour on sites with CloudFlare DDoS protection.
When i open the site in a new window, it takes a really long time and sometimes doesn't display at all and gives me a blank page. and now it just starts to say "New Tab" and i can't hit refresh.
When the site actually loads after 20 something attempts, the site is laggy, any action takes upwards of 20 seconds.
Whenever i try to open something, i get a blank page with the URL at tabs. Whenever i try to like or post anything, it delays by 15-20 seconds.
Site i am trying to use with much failure. http://hypixel.net/
Anyone else having this issue?

Firefox doesn't display content, especially links.

This is my problem in a screenshot: http://d.pr/i/DjkB
The content isn't displayed and especially links. Links are always not there and sometimes text is displayed but all websites are disfunctional because of this.
Here's a link to a screenshot displaying how the same website should look like: http://d.pr/i/ZRvN

Did you manage to find out which font Firefox is using in the case when text doesn't display?
You will have to remove or update that font.<br />
You can also check that font in Fontforge.

Firefox doesn't display bookmarks in the sidebar, only in the menu bookmark. It doesn't display bookmarks in the "organize" bookmarks. It doesn't save tabs on exit. Problem began with 3.6.6

FF 3.6.6 doesn't display bookmarks in sidebar, but a search in the sidebar shows they are still there. It does display them from the menu bar. It doesn't display bookmarks in the "organize bookmark" display. It doesn't save tabs on exit. Doesn't save browser screen size.

With so many issues with your current profile it would be better to try a new profile.
Be careful with what you copy to that new profile and it sounds that at least you have problem with places.sqlite and maybe prefs.js and localstore.rdf as well.
First test that new profile without copying files and installing extensions.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems
See [[Basic Troubleshooting|#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox

Firefox doesn't display text of certain gmail messages seen correctly by IE

One email correspondent sends me messages which only occasionally fail to display on my gmail account browsed using current Firefox version. Same messages display fine in IE (how humiliating!). He has no idea what he's doing differently from one message to the next. I suspect it might be something about "pasted" in content. The header looks fine - just the body comes up blank. Forwarding to myself doesn't help. I've seen this about 6 times in 6 months - all from same sender - most of whose email comes thru fine. I'd suspect something else except for disturbing fact that IE reads these messages without any problem.

<blockquote>
How safe is it to delete Lucida Grande from my Windows Fonts folder?
</blockquote>
I think it depends on how it got there. If it was dropped by Safari for Windows, which is no longer a product that Apple supports, I think it's safe to remove. If it belongs to some other software, then that software might object to losing the font. I'm not sure of the best way to determine that. I suppose you could hedge your bets by dragging it into a different folder so Windows just doesn't see it.

Firefox doesn't display text boxes or windows propertly

Hello, most of the time on many websites only a portion of the textbox bounadry lines show or none at all.
This can be difficult when it doesn't show at all when I need to move my cursor to starting inputting text, aside from it looking unsightly.
Also somtimes windows that were intended to have a lined border don't show or only so partly, I know this because I have another computer running same version of firefox with windows xp beside the computer I am having trouble with to compare.
The computer os I am using that I am having problems with firefox is windows 8.1.
All my windows and video drivers are up to date. I've tried disabling firefox hardware acceleration to no effect.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks Guys for all your attempts to help...none worked.
In the process of trying different things my "My PC" icon disappeared because I was trying to change my account settings to Administrative privileges because I was trying to access the firefox file folder that had profiles so I could delete them. Apparently they were hidden in user folder, but that user folder was hidden and in the attempt to make it visible it denied me access because I didn't have admin rights....
...so in the end I just re-installed win 8.1 and now all the web pages display properly...don't know why..but at least it displays better now.

Firefox doesn't display text properly on pages created with email marketing tool (Constant Contact).

Pages that are built with Constant Contact email marketing application don't display correctly. Different sections of text, usually a paragraph or list group, are readable but "shaded out." This is happening on Mac and Windows platforms.
The pages are built using standard HTML tags and the problem doesn't appear with other browsers.

Can you post a link to one or more of such pages?
* "Clear the Cache": Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
* "Remove the Cookies" from sites that cause problems: Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Flash chart doesn't display cyrillic characters

Hi !
Please give me you advise to solve my problem...
I tried to write X-axis labels on 2D-column chart using Cyrillic characters.
If I set "Labels Rotation" to a value more than 0 chart does not display labels. If labels consists of Cyrillic and Latin characters then only Latin characters are displayed.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Best regards,
Renat.

That is possible.
The rotation functionality within html, if I understand it correctly, actually generates a graphic and rotates that rather than rotates the individual characters. It could be that this functionality just isn't designed for the characters you need.
This may be something you need to research on Adobe's website?

Firefox doesn't display links correctly where they are supposed to be.

I am using a Dell Venue Tablet running Windows 8. I try to load a web page and the links that are supposed to appear above a certain area, show up on the left side of the screen in a column, only in a text style format. The entire page itself isn't loading correctly. I've tried installing and reinstalling Java and that doesn't seem to work. It does the same thing in Internet Explorer as well. Don't know if this is a browser issue or something else?

The tablet is Win 8, but this computer is a Mac, Yes ?

Firefox doesn't display my html properly (Like it is looking like on my editor). Explorer displays the page like my html editor.

Hello,
I develop my web site with a html editor. When I use preview, everything is fine. If I use Explorer, everything is fine also but if I use Firefox to display the page, the images and text are not where they should be.

If you use MS software to generate page code then make sure that you disable VML (MS Office) code in the web authoring settings. Otherwise only IE will be able to display that website properly.
You can see VML as green comments in the View > Page Source.
