For me in Chrome on Mac OS 10.8 instead of an emoticon it just shows a sqare. Safari showed the cat.
The square looks like the qed symbol, I thought the article was about a proof or a box. Both worked fine in my mind :)
- omaranto 14y agoIt sounds like something weird is going on, I would expect the following behaviour: if you have a font with the cat glyph installed on your system all browsers display the cat, if you don't have a font with the glyph then no browser displays the cat. Why does Safari show the cat while Chrome doesn't? I can think of two explanations: (1) Mac OS doesn't actually have a designated place to put fonts for all applications to find (I don't use Mac OS so I have no idea how it works, but this sounds unlikely), (2) Mac OS does have a central location for fotns but Chrome doesn't use them and just uses some fonts it comes bundled with. Is either of those two explanations correct? If not, what is going on?
