The Fixedsys font has no Euro glyph

And therefore if you are viewing this in IE or Firefox, instead of a big fat Euro, you'll will see a big fat square.



Opera, however does the right thing and displays the Euro symbol from a different font. Which font? How does it find it? I don't know, but it does it.

Comments:

1.0.3 Firefox shows it just fine too.
Hmm.. 1.0.4 works to. I need to check the version on that computer I was using when I blogged that. It may be something less than 1.0.3, which means it probably needs to be upgraded anyhow.
Nope.. 1.0.3 on XP, and it doesn't work. Go figure.
