The iPhone can’t render ↩, but I figured if anyone was really curious they’d use Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox or whatever to see it. Sure, the iPod touch and iPhone are great for reading blogs, but nobody would use one without a desktop browser. And every desktop browser can show a real ↩ glyph, right?
Wrong! I don’t know if it’s a general problem, but my copy of Internet Explorer 7 (on Windows XP SP2) can’t render it either.
So here it is, in all it’s glory:
Now don’t complain that I make no effort to support Internet Explorer users. See? I took a screen shot of TextEdit for you.
Displays fine in the article on Vista’s IE 7, but not in the address bar.
Could be an XP vs. Vista thing. It could also be that I am missing a font or something like that.
