Anyway, I've decided to inform the uninformed by making this post. If anyone remembers the CSS link fad, you'll know what I expect will happen...
Just stick these "codes" wherever you want a symbol to appear. Note that you can't use them in titles or sigs.
ARROWS:
¡è ↑
¡é ↓
¡ç ←
¡æ →
¡ê ↔
SYMBOLS:
¢¾ ♥
♦ ♦
¢¼ ♠
¢À ♣
¡Å ∴
¢Ó †
¢Ô ‡
◊ ◊
¡Ä ∞
LETTEREY THINGS:
¢£ ∀
¢¤ ∃
¨« Œ
¡¿ ×
You can find a more complete set
here. And that's just named entities, wait'll you try
Unicode...
EDIT: Unicode is done thusly:
