Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.5.5-1
Severity: normal
Html character entities ‘ ’ “ ”,
left/right single/double curly quotes do not seem to render properly
as they do with IE Explorer and Lynx (at least approximately so with Lynx).
I tried several view/character set settings with no reasonable result.
