How does that model handle this case: <!DOCTYPE html> <meta charset="utf-8"> ע<span style="border:1px solid green;background:yellow">ִבְרִית 17</span>95 In particular, consider the set of boxes that actually get generated here for the <span>. Note that the current handling of that case is best described as "awkward" for borders/padding/margins, but I'm not sure there are really sane ways to handle those in situations like this. On the other hand, current handling of background color is just fine. background _images_ are likely a mess. -Boris
