(€). there are other things that you can do too. i get the euro symbol in netscape 6 and the abbreviation “EUR” in netscape 4.

what’s not clear to me as of yet is whether it’s correct to write prices as €5.99 or 5.99€. both seem to be in use. using the currency symbol as a prefix seems more logical as that’s what we do with $ and £ though it’s not what was done with all the old european currencies.

update: the european central bank’s euro information site is using the euro symbol and the EUR abbreviation as a prefix. that’s definitive enough for me.
