I can't display certain symbols on Firefox. Example: does not show anything on the browser. However, would show the correct symbol.

I discovered a hack that displays the symbol by changing the tag.

will display the symbol. This hack, however is semantically incorrect and I don't want it in my site just so the symbol can display on Firefox. Any other suggestions?
