Funny, but this displays correctly in FF and seamonkey
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<p style="font-size: 3em">
spades = ♠<br>
hearts = ♥<br>
clubs = ♣<br>
diams = ♦
</p>
</body>
</html>
