R (registered) symbol in a confirm box

crmpicco · November 30th, 2005, 06:49 AM

Code:

    question = confirm("You do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader Installed on your system.\n
                       This is required to Print the Terms & Conditions\n
                       Click OK to download this software now. Click Cancel to go Back");

Is there any way to have the R (registered) symbol beside the 'Adobe' text above?

TIA.

This works for me...

Code:

confirm("myTradeName Â®");

HTH,

Chris

Very strange, that should be 0128, must be something to do with your machines configuration.

If you can't get it that way, you can always create a web page with ® in it, then copy and paste the outputted symbol into your code.

HTH,

my local settings are all set at English - United Kingdom, are you at US settings?

Nope, United Kingdom here too.

BTW this site lists the keycodes for the various symbols: http://tlt.its.psu.edu/suggestions/i...s/codealt.html

Hi Picco,

This might help you too:

<script language ="javascript">
function convChars(){

var myNum = "";
var strFrom;
for(strFrom = 1; strFrom <= 255; strFrom++){

document.write(strFrom + " " + "= " + myNum + String.fromCharCode(strFrom) + "<br>")
}

}
</script>

Its just a simple script that shows you all the character codes on a page.

HTH
