Special Character Font Problem
in [ASP]

From: scott on 10 Mar 2006 19:02 I'm trying to use the ascii code for a "down arrow" which is "↓" It displays fine in my DESIGN VIEW within FrontPage, but when I preview it with my browser, it doesn't show. Is there a trick to force ascii codes to render correctly in a browser? It's not a font issue, I tried viewing it with a dozen different fonts to no avail. FONT: ↓

It seems to work fine in Opera, FF and IE. Perhaps there is something else that is causing it not to work. -- Adrienne Boswell http://www.cavalcade-of-coding.info Please respond to the group so others can share
