On this page we will try to explain how to resolve problems when viewing the '''Malayalam pages''' on web browsers like firefox and google chrome. School Wiki uses [[:w:Unicode|Unicode]] to encode its pages. If you '''do not see Malayalam letters at all''' you may need a Malayalam Unicode Font, sections below explain the best options for various platforms.

*Mozilla/Firefox: Mozilla, Firefox and other Mozilla derived browsers have 2 options for font rendering. Their own renderer and pango. Pango is a better choice for redering Indic scripts but its disabled by default because pango makes the browser slightly slower. To compile Mozilla with pango enabled you have to configure with --enable-pango option.

*Konqueror: Konqueror is the native browser of KDE environment and I have heard that it has great support for international text. If Mozilla's support is frustrating you then you might want to checkout konqueror.

*Fonts: I believe all recent versions of Linux distributions come with the necessary fonts installed. You dont want to use any thing released before mid 2003 though. :)
#TODO: add links to the referred software (that doesnt come preinstalled with the OS) and other related links. add syamindu's Mozilla page.
