I'm translating a german web site to english and I add to a phone number the country code. It looks like this: +49-7720-86764370<br />
<br />
The "+49-" doesn't show up under IE5.5, only the "7720-86764370" number shows up. Then I removed the "-" after +49 and placed a space, it looks like this: +49 7720-86764370, and then the +49 shows up. Anybody has an explanation to this???<br />
<br />
Just for information, the text settings was made with CSS.<!--content-->hmmmm..... I don't know why that happens, never even heard of that before. <br />
<br />

Kevin<!--content-->can you show us the code for this?<!--content-->Well, I found an even stranger situation. I have just one number with +49- the other numbers are all +49. So if you guys open this html-code under IE 5.5 all +49 numbers will DISAPPEAR!!!! Is this strange OR WHAT!!!!!!<br />
<br />

</span></HTML><!--content-->Umm... No they didn't disappear in my IE 5.5.<br />
Could this be some sort of specification in the css file?<br />
Or maybe some obscure strangeness in your browser...<!--content-->That's could be some strageness in my browser... I would check another computer with IE5.5<!--content-->yes, Id check the charecter sets your supporting on that specific system. I see things as you've coded them. All numbers render as expected.<!--content-->
