Dear Karl,
Please check that you're actually getting the SBL Hebrew font displayed.
See the "FontTest" page to see a comparison of your system and a
successful system.
I've been able to download and install SBL Hebrew on Macs, but haven't
yet got Firefox to display the SBL Hebrew font. It displays a system
Hebrew font that doesn't know about cantillation marks. I think the
problem is that you need to allow web pages to choose their own fonts.
(The site specifies SBL Hebrew.) There's a menu item with a check box
that does this, but I forget which one it is.
I'm planning on moving to an Apple system in the next six months, IF
Firefox will properly display the text.
