Re: Character map
David,
I did read it before I commented and I had manually scrolled down to the bottom, tried a few items and they didnt give same result as that stated re "right alt" keys. e.g (right alt + 5 should give Euro symbol but it gave ? [black Club card] symbol in case it doesnt come out as that at your end.) What I didnt do was that I didnt check to see what your links actually said as each took me to the usual "page cannot be displayed" screen, not move me down the page as I would have expected if they were on same page. That is why I gave the comment I did. Viz, below is what I still get.
