Although it displays OK in old posts, the pound sign now seems to have gone tits up - is it just me ?

Not just me then, Chief..

Makes me wonder if the boffins at FM central have been messing with the board's character sets..

Allow me to donate some £ to you, never let it be said we all steal £ from charities.

Does it depend on how you're posting eg computer/ipad/phone?

I'm on an iPad and it appears to be ok for my posts.

In Control Panel / Language and Region, do you have Region set as UK?

Yes - I'd already checked that, thanks.

I did notice that the default setting for non-Unicode programs was set to English (US), though..

Swapped that to UK and let's see what happens..

EDIT. That's odd, it displayed OK when I hit the post message but turned out like that ??
