I have some data that I'm entering to an SQL database via an ASP form. The data contains greek letters inclucding the alpha and infinity symbols. These are not shown when the data is retreived from the database and displayed in another form.

Does anyone know the html that can be entered so that the symbols appear or any other solution?

Thanks.

You have to use HTML character entities in order to display greek or any other special symbols.

Here's a good link that will help you:
