I thought I had the font problem solved when I did my test at

http://wikihost.org/wikis/wakashan/wiki/fonts

I promise that the characters showed up correctly. Today, they are
garbled! This very same thing happened at netcipia.net, where the font
was garbled the next day. Is it possible that the wiki software is
reviewing the page during the night and garbling the characters?

Even more troubling, I tried to paste all the characters needed to write
Makah (Ɂƛ) at

http://wikihost.org/wikis/wakashan/programm/gebo.prg?name=use_on_computers

but I couldn't even get them to paste in and display on the page
correctly. Does anyone have a solution for this?

To make sure my posting arrived correctly encoded on Google groups, I
checked the archives, and it does. I then checked the wiki page, and NOW
the characters are appearing correctly. I'm not sure what's affecting
this, though I suspect browser settings/cache issues. Anyway, I'll try
to keep tabs on this and hope others will report problems and solutions
as well.

Perhaps there is a way around the netcipia.net font display problem as
well...

I see that although my e-mail safely made it to Google, the font is
garbled in my own "sent" folder as seen below, lol.
