Works for me - is there an issue?
As do the wingding characters (including smiley face et al) in this page:

http://www.alanwood.net/demos/wingdings.html

In fact I can copy & past the
J       74      0x4A    smileface
into LibreOffice and it appears just fine (not a 'J' but a smiley face)
and is properly set as 'Wingding' font. And yes, I do have the Wingding
font installed on this system.

$ locate wingding
/home/g/.fonts/wingding.ttf
/usr/lib/cinelerra/fonts/wingding.ttf
/usr/share/groff/1.20.1/font/devlj4/generate/wingdings.map
/usr/share/perl5/PDF/API2/Resource/Font/CoreFont/wingdings.pm

So I dispute all the comments stating that Mozilla browsers can't
display Wingding fonts. They certainly appear just fine for me.

Further, if I compose an HTML email and invoke wingding fonts, uppercase
JKL results in the 3 smiley's. Tried sending myself the same, but
received msg was plain text only. I'll have to go mess with the mail
settings to allow html to test.

Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:6.0.2) Gecko/20110902
Firefox/6.0.2 SeaMonkey/2.3.3

No comment on whether use of wingding fonts are proper in browser pages...
