Your original question implied the use of JS or PHP (for sorting etc.), but JS is the standard way to go, whether you like it or not. Looks like this thread just went from HTML to PHP! If your remote server puts out a different encoding, there’s a small chance things might change a bit on your site, so it’s good to make sure your local server mirrors the settings on the remote server (encoding, PHP versions etc.)

It’s most likely to be UTF-8 these days, though, which is what it should be.īut what happens when I upload my code to my VPS? If you don’t like the encoding your server puts out, then you can change it. I am not understanding how you are supposed to dictate how a page is displayed… (I gather the main reason to have it in the of the document is for when you are viewing pages offline.) It happens to be the same as what’s placed in the in the HTML, but if it were different, the server version would win out.

It’s really the site’s server that set the encoding.

So I guess that means that SitePoint is not being displayed as UTF-8 in my browser? I opened up FireBug on this page, and looked at the HTML, and saw this… Some characters aren’t always displayable: they need a special country/language setting of the computer, or special fonts, or maybe something else.With the “font”-size they can be adapted to smaller or bigger.The & #11027 (without space): ⬓ especially made for the followers of the GR’s. and mathematic characters, figures, etc.etc. They cover also all non-Latin alphabets, like Greek, Braille, Chinese, Cyrillian etc. In case only a hover-state is needed (for a dropdown menu or something like that), css is sufficient for the Next problem please? - Can I Use transform - not for IE8 and before … (:įor who is wondering if there are more of these special characters: yes! There are lists with ten thousands of it ( see here or here).

So indeed javascript will be the most efficient way, I think. In that case the down or up will be triggered by an onclick (triggering also the sorting), and is waiting for another click to toggle upside down again. I’ve just a small presumption that the up/down’s are for sorting of a list (as the title of this topic says). No doubt it can be optimised if and only if there is sufficient viewers to warrant changes This has been tried, tested and works fine. Plus, I need my PHP code to be able to easily toggle between an Up Triangle and Down Triangle, and I’m not sure how I’d do that with your CSS suggestion…Ī Your suggestion sure seems like a lot of code and effort for just a triangle. I already saw that, BUT I asked this question in the HTML Forum because I thought there might be an HTML symbol I could use - like the ampersand…
