A nice addition for the Reference Charts would be a table with the different key codes, like the Virtual key, ASCII value, etc.

What FONT is being used on this message board?   

I have a need to print characters above 126  in a TextBox and in the caption of some controls.  The FONTS I have tried give either no visable representation or the same visable representation for all ASCII value between 127 and 255.   I was suprised to find that they will print in this text box:
Such as:

    ⌂ Ç  ₧ ♀  ▲ ▼ →  ←  √  ≡     etc.

Using the Alt and dec code.    So,  what font is being used here?

Could be a UTF-8 thing too since they encode 0-127 as ASCII, but above that as multibyte.  I run into this a lot since most pages I make lately have that encoding and when I have ASCII above 127 it shows wrong Chars.  It either needs UTF-8 encoded or the HTML Code of that char.
