HTML question

- Freaky control characters showing up in Firefox on Macs.
- They show up on nothing else -- not in Safari, not on PCs.

What the hell should I be looking for that will make this stop?

Yes, and they're also the safest way to do accented character if you do the occasional entries (as I do) in German or French.

Techno-peasantly yours.

It works, certainly.

For email, I'm familiar enough with the alt-keypad method and I know most of the characters I need by heart :)
