Hi Guys,

I have a problem. I'm trying to display the glyph for "£" from its string literal which is "& # 1 6 3 ;". I've got two strings

	String a = "£";
	String b = "& # 1 6 3 ;";

and I output the values to the console;

       System.out.println(a);
       System.out.println(b);

String a comes out as "£" but String b is not converted to the same glyph. Why doesn't eclipse do this when the editor for this post does?

NOTE: that the string "& # 1 6 3 ;" should not have spaces in between the characters, but it was the only way I could display the String without the editor converting it to the £ glyph.
