Baiju,
It didn't worked. I installed a mozilla 1.3.1 the latest stable release.
Then i followed your instructions. Still it didn't worked. I am using redhat
8.0, will that be a problem ?
Please help. Do you want more configuration files. ?

Hi Ranjith,
I am sorry for a late reply.
Now mozill 1.3 and upward versions support
Malayalam. You only required to copy font files
to $HOME/.fonts/ directory(if you want a system wide installation please
copy fonts to /usr/share/fonts/).
Free replacements of Malayalam fonts (newspaper) is
available at http://www.keralaindustry.org/malayalam
Regards,
Baiju M
