Unicode tricks
From Freephile Wiki
The current editor on this wiki is NOT unicode safe. Unicode characters will be replaced by ?. So, view the article in one window and edit the article in another so that you can copy/paste back the Unicode
Sometimes you just want a character that is not a standard letter, that will show up in email or a webpage. For example, we made this handy 'Used Car Buying Checklist' without any HTML forms by simply using the Unicode character for a checkbox.
? ? ?[edit]
☐ ☑ ☒[edit]
The standardized Unicode characters that best represent a checkbox are:
?, U+2610 Ballot box
?, U+2611 Ballot box with check
?, U+2612 Ballot box with X
If you don't have a Unicode-safe editor you can use the HTML entity equivalent (terminate each with a semi-colon):
☐
☑
☒
