Indeed. I used to work at News International when they were first setting
up the web site, and I flagged that as a bug at the time. Hell, I even
told them the exact cause of the problem, and how to fix it. Nice to see
that 7 years on, they still haven't been able to sort it out.
But then, it coincided with a switch away from a near perfect typesetting
system to a hugely expensive Windows-based one that couldn't even handle
ligatures (and 7 years later, still can't).
