What is Unicode?
" Unicode provides a unique number for every character,
                                              no matter what the platform,
                                              no matter what the program,
                                              no matter what the language."

If you are unable to read some Unicode characters in your browser, it may be because your system is not properly configured. Here are some basic instructions for doing that.
