Re: Symbols on Web Pages

[Bill Burns <BillDB -at- ILE -dot- COM>]

You need to use character entities for the symbols. You can find a list
of them at

        http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/charset/

Registered trademark and copyright are

        (R) = ®
        (C) = ©

Trade Mark is easy enough to mimic without a special character tag (and
I don't think one is available anyway).

        TM = <SUP>TM</SUP>
