------------------
International Phonetic Alphabet on the web (cont.)

I searched the archive and found the dialog inititated by Ed Dixon in 
02/99 Ref..#4851.

Has anyone found better solutions 3 and 1/2 years later?

MAC: It is easy to download IPA fonts and use Key Caps to learn the 
few characters one needs to learn.  But PC users cannot read the 
fonts.

PC: I believe you can use unicode fonts (haven't tried) but MAC (all 
the way to OSX 1.5) doesn't support unicode for IPA.

Problem remains: is there a web solution that would work for both platforms?
