Greek text IE8 with CSS text conversion

Question

There is a site with Greek text, in it I have this div, which I applied to the style text-transform:uppercase.

<div class="greek" style="text-transform:uppercase;">Υπηρεσίες</div>

Lower case: Υπηρεσίες

Converted to Uppercase : ΥΠΗΡΕΣΊΕΣ

So, in IE8, it shows uppercase text except for one letter "ς"

therefore on IE8 it displays it as: ΥΠΗΡΕΣΊΕς

It's good that this works great in all browsers (FF, Chrome, IE9, IE10, IE11), but not in IE8.

Well, it converts "σ" to "Σ" , but does not convert "ς"

Does anyone have any CSS solution for this.?

Answer 1

This is a bug / flaw in the browser. According to the specifications text-transform, the rules for mapping Unicode cases should be applied, which include the mapping of the final small sigma "ς" to the uppercase sigma "Σ". (They should also do uppercase and lowercase conversions in such a way as to display the word-final “Σ” to “”, but this is another problem and more complicated.) But some browsers still cannot.
