The html with a background this yellow colour depends on styles. To get these to work you can copy this page's stylesheet. Note that it has a bodge to make it work with both FireFox and Internet Explorer.
Lines with a background this colour this pink colour used to work with modern browsers until FireFox version 3 was released. This recent release of FireFox fails (on my Windows system) to display certain unicode characters that older versions displayed correctly. You may be able to fix this (as I have in this page) by setting style="font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode';" either for the whole page, or for those particular characters.
