Subject:Arabic Script sites in Firefox on Mac query

I have been asked to ask you all about something I was wondering about  
myself.  Firefox has had a recent update on the Mac, and since that  
time (I'm not sure exactly when), certain Arabic letters show up as  
question marks.  This is true for hamzas and some commas.  The same  
sites look fine on Safari, and even on Firefox, when you copy the text  
into a program like textedit, for example, the letters show up  
correctly, which indicates that the code is correct, it is just the  
realization of the code.
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?  Does anyone have a  
fix?
Dil
