Viewing the source of apple.com/trailers, it looks like ♥ (?). posted by rafter at 9:57 AM on August 26, 2004
that should be ♥ (somehow got messed up between previewing and posting). posted by rafter at 9:58 AM on August 26, 2004
I think that's not a mistake, the "?" shows up in the entities table as "heart", I think it might depend on the font setting, perhaps? Someone had a real one in a comment the other day, but now I can't find it. posted by milovoo at 10:26 AM on August 26, 2004
jonbrion.com is currently down but no doubt his news section has something on it if it's him. Check back a bit later. posted by dobbs at 10:56 AM on August 26, 2004

I can't make sense of any part of this comment. posted by jjg at 11:24 AM on August 26, 2004
I can't make sense of any part of this comment.
I copied and pasted rafter's vertical line, which showed up correctly in the preview as a vertical line or pipe. That same vertical line symbol is what shows up as "heart" or "black heart suit" in an entities table. When I posted the comment it was replaced by "?".
Someone on this site managed to add a heart symbol to a post recently, which showed up correctly on my (firefox, mac, OSX) browser, but I can not locate that post.
Is that better? posted by milovoo at 11:48 AM on August 26, 2004
I don't see a pipe in rafter's comment, I see a heart. I took rafter's comment to mean that he intended it to display as the entity code, not as the symbol itself.
In other words, I couldn't see the problem you were trying to help him solve. posted by jjg at 8:08 PM on August 26, 2004
