Special characters. Like ? ? ? Why does Internet Explorer not show ?properly, but other characters? <br />
<br />
Look in the title bar. It has a little ?solid block, like an error, like it can't process that character. But if you look in the HTML page an inch below, it appears to render it just fine...<br />

actually it is the browser that has problems. look at NS as it can't display it right even when it is in the page.<br />
<br />
maybe that is why MS didn't even put the ™ in the title. But I do believe it is showing it, it's just that it is so squished you can't read it.<br />

I don't think the text in the title bar is actually handled by the browser, its handled by the system font if I'm not mistaken.<!--content-->true kevin, that would explain why it look like it shows but it is squished. you can control teh text just not hte font. makes sense I guess.<br />

1. I took who-ever-s advice and am abstaining from computers as much as possible. As getting into the sun and blue skys, that trickier as exams approach. <br />
<br />
2. I have wanted to do system reinstalls for long time, to my elderly computer in the basement, and to my dads primary one. My dads affraid I'll "muck it up" so I have to respect his wishes and not touch the Win98SE good dad's one. <br />
Downstairs I want to reinstall! It needs it! But no Win95 CD. Just a used 32RAM 2GD PMMXI for $100 and keyboard. I got it a good deal since the store was going out of business.<br />
