So far as I know, there is no "not equal" that will work on most
browsers. Some people use a small image in such a case. If you can not
find one you like using a Google search, it should be fairly easy to
make one using an image tool such as Paint Shop.
The "not equal" is often needed writing javascript code. In
javascript, "not equal" is written as "!=".
