I'm just days away from re-launching my website, but I have a problem with Firefox that I can't fix - can anyone help?

All works well in IE, but in Firefox the "£" sign is not appearing, but appears as a white "?" in a black diamond is instead. In most of the website I can overcome this by using the ASCII code (£) instead of just typing in the "£" sign - a pain, but a problem I can overcome. However, I'm using paypal and a number of my products have different price options for multi packs etc. and the same problem is appearing in the paypal drop down buttons. I've tried changing the font, to no avail. Is there something obvious I'm missing?

Help!

Thanks

Jeff

sed -ri 's/£/\£/g' *.htm*

That might do it :) Be careful though, that will go through all the html files in a directory and recursively through directories.

So, try it out first, the £ . Then if you are on a unix system or have sed (http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/sed.htm) try it without the -i, which does the file in place.

The £ needs to be replaced with what you have been using.
