I'm about to make a website on phonetics and I'd like to know if I can use this code:
(scroll down a bit to see the table, please, if necesary :))
Words

one two three four five six seven eight nine ten
|
Transcription
|
wʌn tu θri fɔːr faɪv sɪks sevʌn eɪt naɪn ten
|
What do you see? |

It's just an English representation of numbers on the top, followed by a trasncription of those same words on the bottom, right?
Like wan, tu, tri, for, faiv, siks, sevan, eit, nain, ten
Only not using the traditional English characters. |

In IE 6 it looked like the first voting choice, except there was a square instead of an "a" in "Wan".
With Mozilla I see it exactly as you put it in the first voting choice, exept the "a" in "Wan" is an upside-down V.
Windows 98 :/ |

Yes, that's exactly it :)

It's indeed an upside-down V (which looks similar to capital A, reason why I wrote it up there), and it's what I wanted you to be able to read :) Also, "four" has a symbol that looks like a mirrored "C" and many "i" have no dot above them... that's just the phonetic transcription.
I also noticed that using IE 6 there squares for every unusual symbol, while I can perfectly read it using Netscape/Mozilla (I use Win98 too).
hmm... I wonder why Mozilla is the only browser able to see it (so it means you've got the proper font somewhere in your computer) and how I can help IE users read it as well.
Ideas? |

| Ahh yes I'm using a Mozilla-based offspring as well. I don't think Micro$oft would be willing to give you an answer, so you'd probably be best asking in the Mozilla developer forums. |
