squares, as opposed to ? (a ? means the data is garbaged), means the browser
can't properly render that char. this couild be that you're delivering
unicode data rendered with a font that doesn't contain that unicode char
(you seem to be using verdana font, which has some but not many unicode
chars) or you're storing unicode data in a non-unicode datatype (or perhaps
more correctly *some* unicode within a latin-1 stream of text).
