Can anybody confirm this for me:

Given a page with a div, and the style:

div:after
{
  content: "\"quote\"";
}

I'm getting the first quote character appearing in the same position as the 'q'.

     <div>Is the following quote broken?  </div>

Anybody confirm that?

Yep, it's broken. I assume it has something to do with italics because if you remove the font style it works fine.

Seems like this problem is fixed in trunk...  might come as part of the next point release, or you may have to wait until 3.1 or 3.2 (depending on when the patch was accepted and the priority of the bug).

I can't find the bug in Bugzilla, though.  My bugzilla-fu is failing me Tongue Out.

It only seems to affect serif fonts Times New Roman in Firefox.  Bizarre!
