Browser vendors:
Several browser developers have provided information on the IDNwikis about how to use IDNs in their browser. If you have visted the IDNwiki (http://idn.icann.org) and carried out evaluations but not received the result you anticipated it could be because you need to make some local user configuration changes. The information provided by the browser developers will help you do so.
