Display of CSS quotemarks in Chrome

HTML & CSS
1

I have used the CSS quotes property to style q elements with the following:

q { quotes: "\\201c" "\\201d" "\\2018" "\\2019"; }

In most compatible browsers, this has given me neat curly double quotemarks (I’m using serif fonts), but I get only straight quotemarks in Chrome 9, which looks wrong. Is that just how Chrome is, or is my CSS at fault?

That’s just how chrome chooses to render it.

Take a look here for a possible alternative: http://www.cssbakery.com/2010/12/html-blockquote-element-css-content-and.html
