    Question Strange Apostraphe?

    I'm not sure if this is happening with more than just one forum member, but sometimes, on posts, there's this:

    "iæm"
    http://forums.hexus.net/showpost.php...05&postcount=2

    I'm guessing the strange symbol is supposed to be an apostraphe, so I'm just wondering why I don't see it as one.

    So far I only remember it happening with Funkstar...

    Is anyone else seeing this, or is it just me?

    Sorry, thats completely my fault (if you look carefully the only time this occurs is in my posts)

    It is a Norwegian keyboard and things are a little all over the place.The æ is where the ' should be.

    For an @ you need Alt GR+2. £ is Alt GR+3 etc etc etc

    Actually working. I work offshore in the Uk most of the time, but there is a big project over here which i'm looking after. You could say it's cold, i however would say it's bl¤¤dy freezing!! (like the use of the nogy keyboard there?).

    So i'm stuck in the middle of the north sea half way between the Shetlands and Bergen. Been here about a week, got another two to go.
