[LON-CAPA-users] hints for inserting greek characters in simple web page

[lira at egr.msu.edu]

does anyone have tips to insert greek characters in a simple web page?

I am using the Rich Formatting CKeditor to get the layout correct, but
then I have to go back to plain text to insert a Greek character like
α. The Greek characters don't appear in the special symbols
template. Of course I have to search for the location to insert because
the cursor location is lost when switching back and forth.

(When I try to paste as plain text, it is inserted literally rather than
as html code.)
