Rupee symbol not working in firefox - unicode

I am using the following currency code for indian ruppee symbol(&#8377). But it is not supported in firefox but supports in chrome.
Other Currency codes are supported in all the browsers.
Is there anyother code to fix the problem ?


If ₹ is not supported in your FF(Firefox) browser,then use the following css
font-family: DejaVu Sans;
Surely it will work because its working for me...
I have tested that in FF (15.0.1),chrome,IE8,IE9...its working fine....
Example :
<span style="font-family: DejaVu Sans;">₹</span>


This should work better: ₹
(₹)


It is not specific to just Firefox. I am here seeing this on all browsers.
The reason is Windows 7. On Windows 8, It works fine.
You will need to install following update
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2496898
An update to support the new currency symbol for the Indian Rupee in
Windows Vista, in Windows Server 2008, in Windows 7 and in Windows
Server 2008 R2


Eventhough its too late, But I am feeling its worthy to share
After great struggle, we have found a permanent and easy solution/fix for the issue in displaying indian rupee symbol on any Windows OS such as XP, Vista, 7, or any other.
The solution is, you just copy all the symbols(available in "Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Fonts" folder of Windows) from the machine(most of the newer versions of Windows such as few editions of Windows7 will support all the UNI code chars), and paste in Fonts folder of your machine . Then restart your machine, it will take few minutes to boot with new changes. Then check now. All the Symbols will gets displayed properly.

Why are versions of VS Code newer than 1.65.2 not working in my office PC?

This is an issue I am facing at my office. I was using the VS Code 1.65.2 in my office desktop.
This version of VS Code works fine even now.
But I can't get any other newer versions run, not even getting opened. e.g. 1.74.3
Suggestion was to run as admin but this is my office & not a feasible solution.
But why I able to work with 1.65.2 but not any other new?
Office PC : Windows 10 Enterprise 21H2
Have any of you experienced this issue & found a way out of it?

Installer for Windows 8.1 App outside Windows Store

I have a universal windows application for windows 8.1 and windows phone (WAP)
But my customer doesn't have access to the windows store, there's a way to use Installshield or something similar to generate a Setup Installer?
At the moment i have to type some code in powershell and it's really annoying and unprofessional.
There's a workaround for this situation?

The Suite/Advanced UI project type (Premier edition of recent enough versions—probably 2012 Spring) has support for side-loading .appx packages. More recent versions (2016 or so) add support for Windows 10 UWP App Packages.

Support for Vista?

I could find nothing on the main VSCode site that listed the version of Windows supported. When I install on Vista, I get an error:
The prodcedure entry point RegisterTouchWindow could not be located in the dynamic link library USER32.dll.
So I'm guessing this is for Windows 7 and up?

Vista is not supported.

java 7 update25 applet not working on IE10

Anyone has success of running applet page below with IE10 installing the jre7u25?

Are there any way to disable update of java when using runapplet below?

Anyone has success of running applet page below with IE installing the jre7u25?
I don't use Windows, but I'm sure someone has. At least for some version of IE. It is (frankly) implausible that it doesn't work in the vast majority of cases.
Please be specific about what version of Windows and IE you are talking about, and how it is "not working" for you.
Are there any way to disable update of java when using runapplet(jnlp) below?
This doesn't make sense. JNLP doesn't update Java.
The problem with Java and IE10 seems to be to do with 32bit versus 64bit. Apparently IE10 defaults to running in 32bit mode, even on a 64bit platform. And a 32bit browser requires a 32bit Java plugin.
Check what versions of Java you have actually got installed.
Try switching IE10 to "Enhanced Protection Mode" and see if it can find 64bit Java.
Try manually installing a 32bit Java.
Reference:
http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/win8_faq.xml

I figured out why the problem occurs.
IE10 runs in 64bit frame but the tab runs in 32bit mode.
There is a way to run tab in 64 bit mode in windows8.
http://www.lockergnome.com/windows/2012/08/25/how-to-make-internet-explorer-10-run-in-64-bit/
But it doesn't work in windows7.
I tried with chrome ie tab which runs chrome and ie in 32bit mode in which the applet works.

I had problems too with my applet. In Google Chrome from the start works perfectly.
Internet explorer 10 seems not recognize new Java 7 u 25 installed on PC after automatic upgrade.
I solved problem with next steps:
uninstall all Java 7 versions on PC
Download Java package on http://www.oldapps.com/java.php (depending what you need 32 or 64 bit)
install Java
After that IE10 recognized Java and applet works fine.

Maybe just add the env var like the next post says. That functions for me!!!

And add too the parameter at execution time like the next post
http://nicolask.wordpress.com/2012/11/30/oracle-jnitiator-version-too-low-please-install-version-1-1-8-2-or-higher/
I hope this help you!!! And as an advice use chrome for better performance.

The only way I could get the latest java (7 update 25, 32 bit) to run ALL THE TIME in Internet Explorer 10 desktop mode (in Windows 8 64 bit) was to create a new shortcut to:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
Then hitting advanced (in the shortcut) and choosing RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR
If you do not want to do that (for security reasons), the work around that I found, was to install Chrome (as Java works all the time) and use that for sites that require Java.
I hope that helps

the 64-bit java plugin is not compatible with Enhanced Protected Mode, which is a new type of sandbox they have for IE10 and IE11.
Therefore , disable Enhanced Protected Mode, install 32-bit JRE and now IE should run 32-bit child processes for each window, which will be compatible with Your 32-bit Java plugin.
This is valid for the desktop-mode IE in Win8. The new-flat-unintuitive-mode IE has Enhanced Protected Mode enable per default. You can check by using Process Explorer, and showing the Integrity column. If "AppContainer" is displayed, then EPM is used
Hope this helps

Is WinDbg still compatible with Windows XP?

I was looking for a debugger for Windows, other than GDB, which is freely accessible. I found WinDbg and it looks quite good so I wanted to give it a try. Now when I go to the MSDN page it offers to download the SDK for Windows 8. As this is a rather big package, I wonder if I can use this WinDbg version still for Windows XP?
Since my company still uses Windows XP for some time to come, I'm stuck with it for now. Is there another, free debugger which is user friendly?
I'm used to Visual Studio for debugging, which is quite nice. Currently I use Eclipse with GCC and GDB. GDB is good enough, but when I do some assembly I don't really like it, and all in all I don't find it very user friendly.

The latest WinDbg will work with Windows 2000 onwards and most commands work with Windows XP. There will be some that will only work with later versions, but these are documented in the included help file.
Just to ease your download pain, firstly there is the option to select what to download from MSDN, or you can just download the version you want here thanks to a kind person who is hosting the individual components.
