However IE 8 on the same system only renders square boxes for each character. Safari and Opera also manage to display those characters in an alert dialog window. -- Martin Honnen http://msmvps.com/blogs/martin_honnen/

If the alert dialog does not show such characters then with IE you could define your own dialog contents with HTML and show it using showModalDialog http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms536759(v=VS.85).aspx -- Martin Honnen http://msmvps.com/blogs/martin_honnen/

I just find that JavaScript doesnt seem to be able to handle the characters. I'm going to be writing them to an element on the page, but I can't seem to do anything with them once JavaScript as hold of them. They turn into '?' straight away. Alerting is probably the most basic thing I could think of doing with them. If I use document.write it still writes questions marks. Graham Vincent |
