Crossplatform EURO sign?

[Andre Garzia]

Richmond,

except that you can resize the pngs and jpegs using rev itself and thus had
a image that will always look good. Before setting the htmltext, you get the
size of the text font being used and then simply resize your euro icon. If
you start with a big icon, and reduce it to the current font size, you'll
not loose quality and can cope with any font size!

resize can happen offscreen and thus be extremely fast for a single icon,
just create a copy of the original image offscreen and resize it, use its ID
on the htmltext and you're good to go!

no one can stop a good hack!
