I must be really dense, LOL

According to the title, and from http://asciivalue.com/index.php that char you are referring to is ASCII char 151 according to asciivalue.com:

Code:
http://asciivalue.com/index.php

See also (Extended ASCII):

Code:
https://www.petefreitag.com/cheatsheets/ascii-codes/

Also, analyzed with an online ASCII checking tool (asciivalue.com), it indicated this is ASCII 151. BTW, it is also known as "em dash" as I recall, Extended ASCII 151.

I must be really dense today (not enough sleep or coffee?) because I am not finding your posts and replies "understandable" That em dash in the HTML title string of DuckDuckGo is extended ASCII.

I (1) opened the DuckDuckGo HTML source, and (2) cut-and-pasted the title directly into the ASCII checker (asciivalue.com) and (3) the ASCII checker says ASCII 151.... Smilie then I(4) checked against a different online Extended ASCII table, and it was also 151.

Code:

I think I'll go ride my motorcycle in the country side.... since I cannot seem to understand how an "em dash", Extended ASCII 151 is somehow "not standard".... Smilie Smilie
