The issue is not just the font, but also the browser. If you view the index in Internet Exploder then you see a square. If you view in FireFox then you see a triangle.

Not so, Coen. I use IE6 at work and IE7 at home and I see the character on both.

Same here, I have I.E. with XP here at work and I see the triangle.

Gully, I will look tonight on my home computer for the square on your link.

Thanks.

Well Gully, I don't even see a character number 5654. They start with 03x and go to 983x. Maybe I am dense but I just don't understand what you want me to look for.

Slightly OT (sorry)
I'm over three years out with the Fox, but there's one nagging thing..
I'm a Hotmail guy from waa--a-y-y-y long time back, and Firefox will not let me use the html option on email.
I HATE that!. It just aint' right, having to start up IE browser just to use Hotmail's extra features.

Okay, I'm done-- aplogies for rambling

Reg,

I'm not exactly sure about this but most probably Firefox is not blocking anything. It must be Hotmail that is programmed in a way that you cannot use all its functions but from an IE browser. It often happens that some web developers do not care with/for cross-platform or cross-browser compatibility.

BTW - who "owns" hotmail nowadays?
Have you ever heard of such accusations of "those" (name not to be mentioned now) big firms?

Eric, the "x" represents the column number in the table. So character 9654 is in the cell located at Column 4 of Row 965x.

Well now that I know it is 9654 I see where to look. Thanks.
There is no 5654.

Edit. Your first post with the link said 9654 and your second said 5654, sorry I misunderstood.

On my computer at home 9654 is a square on the site you posted.

Edit. On my computer at work 9654 is a triangle.

Now we're getting somewhere. I have formulated a considered opinion and a proposed solution:

Your computer at home is a POS. You should replace it immediately.

Glad to help.

Replace it because of one glitch... no thanks.

Thanks for the concern however
