Hi All,

I’ve visited here: [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/international\_characters.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/international_characters.htm) but I still find that some characters (mostly capital letters and html formatted items) don’t appear in my dynamic text fields.

Text is loaded from a txt file into a text field with characters embedded (the first four options - which includes capitals) but I’m getting weird results.

See here: [http://www.thepaddingtonbeautyroom.com.au/Testing/tpbr.html](http://www.thepaddingtonbeautyroom.com.au/Testing/tpbr.html)

Thanks  
C
