<p>The boxes you're seeing are because of a character that the browser can't find in any available font (either on your computer or provided by the website). When that happens, the browser generates a placeholder, which looks like your screenshot.</p>
<p>The icon font on the URL you provided is called FontAwesome and is a WOFF2 font provided by the website. TenFourFox 38 does not understand this type of font properly. Unfortunately, you don't have much alternative other than to upgrade to the current version, which should fix your problem (FPR4's font support is current with the latest version of Firefox, including all fixes as of Firefox 57), and it should run just fine on your present computer.</p></div>Cameron Kaisertag:tenfourfox.tenderapp.com,2012-01-07:Comment/440765002017-11-20T22:39:02Z2017-11-20T22:39:02ZTFF PPC Mac versions will not load small button icons or check-boxes - gives small rectangle instead<div><p>Dear Cameron,</p>
<p>Thanks very much. I upgraded as advised, and<br>
everything works fine. All the little boxes now<br>
show appropriate icons, etc. My G4 DMD tower<br>
PowerPC works marvelously. If only someone would<br>
come up with a solution to viewing html5 videos,<br>
I could give the Intel machines a raspberry!<br>
Much appreciated,<br>

That should be coming out in January.</p>
<p>Since this appears to be working, I'll close this ticket, but if you have a related problem, any reply you make will automatically reopen it. If you have a new issue that is not related, please open a new ticket instead.</p></div>Cameron Kaiser
