    even count how many times I asked this question and got no answer.
    Possibly because the description is very vague.

    The name of the game may help for a start.

    The game is called Habbo.com. The game opens up in another window, and it requires Java and Flash Player to play. I have both and they're updated to their latest versions (not sure if that really matters). Anyway, I got this computer back in November of 2009 from BestBuy. I tried doing special characters back in November in gaming and it didn't work. On their website, alt + 159 appears as ƒ. But in gaming, it appears as a ♥. I tried doing that alt code in gaming but it comes out as an apostrophe instead. When I tried doing the ™ (Alt+0153) in gaming, it comes out as this: !". Hope I gave you some-what of a detailed description of my problem.

    Alt Codes - that makes a bit more sense now.

    It's an issue with the updated Habbo I believe.

    Habbo Hotel US:

    Sorry to say, I can't help you further than that

    Perhaps try ALT+0131 ƒ

    as for the others...

    My friends have no problem doing alt codes on there, so I don't think that's the reason.
    Could it have something to do with language packs? I can't install any language packs since
    they're incompatible with Home Premium. It seems to have something to do with my computer,
    since I tried doing alt codes on my old computer (which has language packs and Windows XP)
    and it worked fine. It's not really a big deal but I would like to be able to do alt codes again in
    gaming instead of watching other users being able to do it. I wish I could solve this so bad.

    Honestly, it's hard to say.

    The fact that you can do it outside of the game suggests it's not a language pack issue.

    Did you have language packs installed for Java on your XP installation?

    I'm not familiar enough with habbo, so I can only speculate.

    The only other thing I can think to suggest is to perhaps try a different browser. If it still occurs, then I'd suspect it's Java that's altering the Alt Codes.

    I'm not sure about language packs for Java, but I do know I have lang. packs on old PC.
    I have Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox (both are updated to their latest versions), and
    this problem happens in both browsers. I do notice that my Java says 32-bit when my PC is
    64-bit. Can Java really be causing alt code problems? Because I didn't know that.
