Copyright symbol a question mark - 3/20/2005 13:42:39   
I am using a outfront template to do a site. For some reason when I publish the web site, the copyright symbol turns into a question mark.

It looks like this: ? Copyright

I have never have this happen before except with the outfront templates.

Is there any way around this problem?

That's because the character in the font set cannot be found, thus making it a question mark.

Can we get a link to where this is published? Also, the font you are using would help too :)

I have tried arial and verdana. I have used these two fonts for copyright in the past with no problem.

I've had difficulty placing this in the forums. Use this in your code, eliminating the underscore_: &_copy;

Would using the ISO special symbol number have the same effect? -
©
Sticking it in as code was the only way I could get it to show. I think that should work. As I understand it the ISO numbers aren't font dependant.

Oops! Even that doesn't show it! It's &_#_169 without the underscores inbetween - that might work.

RE: Copyright symbol a question mark - 3/20/2005 15:10:22   
I just changed it to

copyright @ 2005 Best Heating & Air Conditioning.

For some reason this works fine with the copyright symbol after the word copyright instead of before the word copyright.

Thanks for everyone's help

Where is the copywrite symbol at? Are you talking about the @ ? or the ©

It works!!

For some reason I overlooked spooky & charles answer. After reading everyone's answer over again, I finally saw their answer and tried it.

Thanks for the help!
