If you spend a lot of time on that site and the problem is really
annoying to you, you might want to consider grabbing a copy of Opera.
It's free, it's fast (faster than FF), has high standards compliance and
renders the ♥, ♠ etc. as you would like them to. If it
wasn't for Chris Pederick's Web Developer toolbar extension for FF,
Opera might be my main browser.

Do that! And also address the validation and encoding issues that Alan
Flavell pointed out. Even though they're not causing the problem here,
they're likely to cause other problems and it is much easier to debug
HTML quirks when you can eliminate invalid HTML and encoding as
potential problem sources.
Good luck
