You could use a solution that incorporates both Jamie’s and Shoban’s answers and adds some conditional comments:
The above works on Windows in IE6, 7 & 8, Firefox 2 & 3, Opera 9.6 and Google Chrome 1.
It does not work in Safari for Windows 3 or 4. Safari for Windows renders a square for
∠(and∠). If Safari for Windows support is required, you are going to have to combine JavaScript to detect IE and Safari with Jamie’s replace with image solution.
