it's possibly a webkit issue,as i read on the net that all the webkit
based browsers, from safari to chrome had sufferd from this problem in the
past and got fixed by their respective devs.
and it's not a font issue either,because,a)i'm using the default ones that
work in Tracker and i also tested with some specific arabic fonts the
problem remained unchanged,b)the font fallback problem affects arabic &
hebrew chars see ticket #6967, where as web+ displays hebrew sites
correctly.
so hopefully this info gives you some directions as to where to look.
