In your CSS file there is:

body, div, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, a, li, table, th, td {
font-family: Arial, Geneva, Gill Sans, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif;
}

Add in the first place a font which *supports IPA extensions*, e.g. Lucida
Sans Unicode:

body, div, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, a, li, table, th, td {font-family:
"Lucida Sans Unicode", Arial, Geneva, "Gill Sans", Helvetica, Verdana,
sans-serif; }
