Displaying a J instead of a £ sign

[redsent]

My site is displaying a J instead of a £ sign in the shopping cart side box.

It does this in both fire fox and internet explorer.

Any help to get rid of this would be appreciated.

In the admin, what is the default currency?

GB Pound, it seems to work everywhere but this one side box, can't work out why.

Could be a character encoding issue, in admin > localisation > currencies your currency should be set so that the left symbol is £ not using the actual pound sign. If you submit a pound sign straight from the keyboard it may come through as UTF-8 when your browser sends it, but Zen Cart is a windows character set by default.

It was the font style in the css, it didn't like helvetica, when i changed the font style of the item it worked.
