How To Use WebRupee on your website ?
(note: please replace “[” and “]” with “<” and “>” other wise code will not work)
1. Add a stylesheet link in the head section of your webpage:
[link rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” href=”http://webrupee.com/font”]
2. Add the following code enclosing your “Rs.”
[span class=”WebRupee”]Rs.[/span]
OR
Just include the following javascript and it will update all the ” Rs “/” Rs. ” for you
[script src=”http://webrupee.com/js” type=”text/javascript”][/script]
(note: please replace “[” and “]” with “<” and “>” other wise code will not work)
What I really like is, if I use the script , it converts all the previous instances where Rs. is mentioned. Also, you do not have to take extra effort. Another advantage of it is – if someone copies your text, still the text will appear properly !
Go ahead, try out this simple, cross browser compatible method for using the Rupee symbol on your webpage, blog or anywhere on the web.
