although sets browser encoding to UTF-8

(If you're using numeric character references of course it doesn't matter what encoding is being used, browsers will get the correct Unicode codepoint directly from the number.)

I would appreciate if someone could check under FF on Windows. I am pretty sure it won't work on a non Windows box.

Fails for me in Firefox 3, Opera, and Safari. Curiously, works in the other Webkit browser, Chrome. Also fails on Linux (obviously, as Wingdings isn't installed there; it is installed on Macs, but that doesn't help you if Safari's not having it).

Also it's a pretty nasty hack — that character is to all intents and purposes “ü” and will appear that way to things like search engines, or if the text is copy-and-pasted. Proper Unicode code points are the way to go unless you really have no alternative.

The problem is that no font bundled with Windows supplies U+2713 CHECK MARK (‘✓’). The only one that you're at all likely to find on a Windows machine is “Arial Unicode MS”, which is not really to be relied upon. So in the end I think you'll have to either:

use a different character which is better supported (eg. ‘●’ — bullet, as used by SO), or

use an image, with ‘✓’ as the alt text.
