how do you add the square root symbol? thanks

type √ into the source code and you will see it displayed as √ on the web page (this does not work in netscape 4 however, so if you want to make it NN4 compatible, your only option is to use a graphic.)

-alternatively, copy and paste the symbol from this web page <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

If you want other special character codes, refer to this page:

www.utoronto.ca/ian/books/xhtml1/entity/en_symbol.html

To display any of these characters, look at the column called 'entity name' and use an & before the entity name and a semicolon ( ; ) after it.
Note - the entity names are case sensitive, so that a capital Delta (&amp;Delta; = &Delta; ) is not the same as a lowercase delta (&amp;delta; = &delta; )

Hope this solves your text problem Nick.
