> How do i code the symbol // Unicode apparently only has 2225 PARELLEL to which is normally represented by vertical lines || Strangely it does have 29E3 EQUALS SIGN AND SLANTED PARALLEL and 29E4 EQUALS SIGN AND SLANTED PARALLEL WITH TILDE ABOVE but it doesn't have a SLANTED PARALLEL > (at the moment i use // which is the same as using // as &sol is just character 47 ie / > but i don't think it is the right way, is it ?). I suspect it is the best you can do, in the absence of a specific unicode character for this. > 2) How to denote the arc of a circle ? well I think the correct answer is 2312 ARC but I just tried IE and Mozilla and they both rendered that with a missing glyph mark (which isn't incorrect if the glyph isn't on the fonts being used, but isn't what you want, probably) mozilla and IE/MathPlayer both render 2322 FROWN as an arc above the AB but it may be a bit flat and is not centered (by either system) Or rather, I suspect it is centered on the width of the characters at the baseline but looks off center due to the italic slope of the letters, however this is usable, I think.
