annoying large square in place of every slash-zero
you have.

Doesn't even have to be HTML.

It worked on my computer, and I'm not even running the same operating
system. (I'm using Linux)

(unfortunately I can't *type* a slashed zero that way on Linux, but if
someone else types one I can read it)

Yep it shows on many others,
so might be an operating system incompatibility
Glad you responded as I thought it worked on all systems.
Sorry for any confusion.

If you sympathize with terrorists & middle eastern tyrants,
vote for liberals...

Why are there so many rednecks on this newsgroup?
Please keep your politics out of here, OK?

well, the error is probably on my end..... I would have to guess,
if so many others are getting a slashed zero. I'd like to
be able to generate one, that would really be great for
ham radio stuff on the computer.

Top nations that fund UN treasury,
in descending order...

United States: 22%
Japan: 19.6%
Germany: 9.8%
France: 6.5%
UK: 5.6%
Italy 5.1%
Canada: 2.6%
Spain: 2.5%

Russia isn't even in this top 8 list.
France, Russia and Germany, COMBINED,
do not contribute as much to the UN as
does the United States......

Sorry my oppinion offended you, but I will not shut up.
I recommend you putting me on your block senders list
if you do not care for what I have to say, or not read any
post you see with me as the author.

Recommendation complied with. I do not come here to read about
politics. It's just another form of spam.

Plonk!
