Special characters (mdash) not properly displaying

[ewon15]

I have a dynamic text box on the stage that I load text into from and XML doc. I have it set to render as HTML and have embedded the font. Things like apostrophes, quotations and ampersands all display properly using the HTML character references (', ", &, etc). However, when I try to make an m dash (or any type of dash for that matter) it does not display the actual dash, only the character reference (—).

Let me know if you need any code form me... here's the link to the piece i've created. www.rainnetdev.com/clients/jh/portfolio.php

Please help! Much thanks...

Have you tried using & # 1 5 1 ; instead?

Could also be that the font you are embedding doesn't actually have that character. Not all fonts contain all characters.

OMG you're a genius! I dont know where you found that character listing...what type of reference is that?

thank you very much!
