<p>is it possible to display &#8659; entity in ie6? It is being display in every browser but not IE 6.I am writing markup such as:  </p>

<pre><code>&lt;span&gt;&amp;#8659;&lt;/span&gt; 
</code></pre>

According to
this page
, that symbol doesn't show in IE6 at all.
```
```
Symbol  Character  Numeric  Description
⇓       &dArr;     &#8659;  Down double arrow - -  * Doesn't show with MS IE6
```
```
If you really need that particular symbol, you may just have to go for a small graphic of the arrow - not an ideal solution, but if you need it to display in IE6 then that may be your only option.
