Read the thread, cd...<BR><BR>Author: Anne ([email protected])<BR>Date: 08/14/2002, 03:59 pm<BR><BR>Message: You must include the semicolon after the "euro." So, type ampersand (symbol) euro semicolon (symbol) without spaces.<BR><BR>&euro; = & + euro + ; with no spaces.<BR><BR>It's HTML.<BR><BR>

&euro;

Just to clarify&mdash;HTML is the code in which all Web pages are written. To make certain special characters appear, you have to type a code that always begins with & and always ends with ; (I haven't put a period at the end of that sentence to avoid confusion.)<BR><BR>For instance, if you want to make a British pound sign, you insert the word pound in the middle of the ampersand and the semicolon. If you want to make the copyright symbol, you insert the word copy between the & and the ; <BR><BR>There is a list of these special characters at<BR><BR>http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/reference/special_characters/<BR><BR>The euro sign isn't on this list yet, but it was easy to figure out.<BR><BR>As you can see from the list on this website, you can use numbers instead of letters to get the same result for certain symbols. But don't confuse this with the ALT + numbers thing&mdash;that isn't HTML, it's some other kind of code.

Not sure what this uses these can serve - - but it will be interesting to see if they work.<BR><BR>&spades;<BR>&hearts;<BR>&clubs;<BR>&d iams;<BR>&uarr;<BR>&darr;<BR>

Now ain't that a hoot!<BR>

&lt;b&gt;congratulations everyone!&lt;/b&gt;

sorry that didn't work.

&euro;

Test too. CTRL + ALT + E = ?

?uro.<BR>?uro.<BR>&euro;uro

evidently nobody has anything better to do ? <BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>

Is this whole thread a joke? (real question mark). I'm using windows 95 on netscape 4.72 and see no euro symbols on this thread, just squares, question marks or the series of keystrokes.

This thread will explain why it does not show the &euro; sign in windows 95<BR><BR>http://www.fodors.com/forums/pgMessa...=2&tid=1397170

You have to update windows 95.

This is the relevant snippet you'll need from the lengthy thread cited above.<BR><BR>http://www.microsoft.com/windows95/downloads/contents/WURecommended/S_WUFeatured/W95EuroPatch/Default.asp<BR><BR>So, I suspect that you could just go there directly.<BR><BR>As with just about any operating system patch, you'll have to run the EXE file, and then re-start your computer.<BR><BR>and then voila, you'll be able to see the euro symbol correctly on those websites where THEY have it enabled.<BR>
