I normally use Alt-0128, but that does not work, I get kicked out of a message when I try that one.

€ -- I just used ALT-0128 and this is what I got. Not sure why it didn't go when you typed it.

Okay, another try with IE: €

Mmm, Firefox issue then.

Looks like it's an official Firefox bug (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=257478). If you feel strongly about it, you can create a Bugzilla account and cast your vote for it.

Seems like the bug has been known for a long time already. I don't think my single vote will cause a big stir :basic04

Strange. The bug report Adam referred to is real.

Mine says I am using the same version. Maybe it is a keyboard thing.

I voted for it, FWIW.
Still doesn't work even if all of my extensions are disabled.

Does that mean the wrong money we got a few years ago?

Euro sign
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euro_sign
The euro is represented in the Unicode character set with the character name EURO SIGN and the code position U+20AC (decimal 8364) as well as in updated versions of the traditional Latin character set encodings.[2] In HTML "€" can also be used. The HTML entity was only introduced with HTML 4.0; shortly after the introduction of the euro, many browsers were unable to render it.

I normally use Alt-0128, but that does not work, I get kicked out of a message when I try that one.Alt-0128 generates the ASCII sign no. 128. This is Microsoft standard and works only for Microsoft programs, making ASCII no. 128 visible (in common with charset windows-1525). In case, it will be shown correctly under other configurations, does this happen only by luck (correctly seen were it a bug) and not because it is wanted.
I add next line the ASCII no. 128 as UTF-8 sign, with spaces => & # 1 2 8 ;

A browser, will show between this last lines an Euro - sign does make a mistake, is that right?
