well!...amazing...I guess I learn something everyday..I did not understand exactly what you were saying in your tables and explanations, but I did comprehend the concept that all symbols and characters are available if you ask for them thru certain procedures...and *grin*...true to my leanings, I have a little program that will size, colorize, specify fonts and create the necessary simple HTML to display what I want....and since Symbol is a standard PC font, I can display the ¥ to almost everyone!

here it is for those who don't have it in them to get slick with HTML

Thanks for the efforts, John...even if I did run with the ball in different directions than you were coaching! Font Colorizer
