Hello Najib,

Are these test results published somewhere? At w3.org <http://w3.org/>  maybe?

Thanks,

The other thing to test is whether the browser supports the %xx%xx version of Unicode characters.


It seems they do not support (but Opera 9, once again).
That's what I have noticed sometimes ago, when authoring HTML with Arabic IDNs.  My link looks fine in the status bar, but don't go to the expected location on click. The href attribute is in %xx%xx version, and the IRI displays like that in the address bar.
