testing testing one two three ≠ ≠ ≠
Hey, how do you keystroke that symbol, anyhow?
& # 8 8 0 0 ;
I put spaces between each component character to keep it from rendering; you, of course, should not do that. Don’t neglect to notice the semicolon at the end, it’s part of the deal.
When I’m not in a vBulletin browser window, I keystroke it with a simple option-equals, but vBulletin turns ≠ into a “?” so that doesn’t work.
In fact, if you preview, or go back to edit your own post, it will display as ≠ in the “edit post” window (instead of ampersand #8800 semicolon) then change to “?” when you post it. So don’t forget to not preview if you include a not-equals sign in your post or you’ll have to edit it back.
Cool, thanks!
Here’s a trick with preview that someone else mentioned.
When you’re using characters like this, don’t make your changes on the current page. Use your browser’s back button, and the original code should appear.
≠
It works. Kewl.
≠
how useful!
≤
=& #8804; except without the space
≥
=& #8805; except without the space
Is there a list of such keystrokes?
Yes, for example in this PDF file. You will to convert the HEX codes to decimal, though.
**&#**8804; = ≤
**&#**8707; = ∃
**&#**8704; = ∀
**&#**8730; = √
Not everything works, thought.
For example:
**&#**8752; = ∰
(instead of that triple integer)
The closed path triple integral shows up fine for me. FF 2.0.0.2, XP.
Really?
I see it as a small rectangle, on both home and work PC (IE6, under XP SP2)
Works for me with Links 2.1Pre20 in graphical mode under Kubuntu 6.06.1. In fact, everything except & #8752; shows up fine.
Is that what that thing’s called? So it’s a math symbol, huh? I was wondering why they’d put an auto manufacturer’s logo in our common fonts!
oh: I see it too, Shiira 1.2.1, OSX 10.4.9
If it’s a thing like three tall letter Ss, with a circle through the middle of them, yeah.
In other words, I can’t see it, either.
& # 8 8 0 0 ;
 8 0 0;
this better work or I’m going to cry
