The following was added using html code. If it displays as code and not as a web document, the attached zip file is a web document that will display correctly in a web browser.
<p>I have noticed that several people have asked how to make certain symbols
appear correctly, in particular the currency symbols. Below is a table of the
most commonly used ASCII Characters that people ask about.</p>
<p><u><b>A simple example of how to use these symbols is as follows:</b></u></p>
<p>When setting up the Euro currency in osCommerce you will want to display the <b>'
€ ' </b>to identify to your customer that it is Euro. If your keyboard does
not have this key on it, you can still make the symbol appear by typing <b>&#8364;</b>
or <b>&euro; </b> where you want the <b>' € ' </b>to show.</p>
<p>A more comprehensive list of ASCII Characters can be found at <a href="http://www.ascii.cl/htmlcodes.htm">"HTML Codes - Table of ascii characters and symbols"</a></p>
