I just formatted my computer and reinstalled Windows, and when I reinstalled Opera, I'm not seeing the special HTML symbols like ♥, etc.

I can't remember if there was a special font I had to download at one point, or if I just have something stupid unchecked/checked that shouldn't be. Both IE and Firefox work.

This is what I see:


Thanks,
Joe

What version are you using? I'm using version 8.51 and I installed no special fonts.

I found out what the problem was. You have to have the font Arial Unicode MS installed on your computer. It's only distributed through MS Office, so you'll have to install it from your Office CD. Instructions are available here from Microsoft.
