    I am having trouble viewing these symbols here:
    http://www.philosophy.ubc.ca/faculty/bartha/p220gen/sentho2.htm

    The sentential operators should look like their descriptions, as in dot, wedge, tilde, horseshoe etc, but all I am seeing are weird symbols. I tried various different encodings on my Mozilla Firefox 1.0.4 but still no help.

    Can anyone view it correctly, and if so, what encoding do u use?

    I can see those characters properly using IE ver. 6.0.2800.1106 and Wester Europe encoding (no other seems to be working correctly).

    Yeah works for me on IE too but just not on Firefox, don't know why.

    I hate having to need to switch browsers for this page only but guess that's what I'll have to do [xx(]
