Submitting new threads

Does anyone know how i can print out symbols when
submitting a new thread? Say if i post a thread in the Math forums and i want to print out the Pi sign i know in Unicode it is /u03c0. Do i have to use HTML tags?

ô¿ô Use the character map under...

Start--->Programs--->Accessories--->System Tools--->Character Map

Come to think of it. Where i used to work they ran win 3.1 and there was a character map. but i was wondering how i could add a symbol in VBWorld when
posting.

Mmm... like that?

No, you can't use the character map.

For the first 256 characters, I like to hold down ALT and enter the three digit code on the numpad.

If it's really a Pain in the ass why not use pi instead ????

As far as I know...you cannot get the pi symbol here
directly because you require the symbol font for it to
map the particular ascii code to pi symbol.

Since you have no way to change the font here...
you can do little about it.

Maybe I am just different, but what is so increadibly funny about this? Don't laugh at someone if they are telling YOU how to do something, that you asked for help with!

Try switching to Decaffe. It might help the irritability you seem to be having.
