The following HTML character entities should produce the Greek alphabet 
in standards compliant browsers.  They work in Firefox, and probably in 
Mozilla and recent versions of Netscape since they all use the same 
rendering engine.  They also work in IE 6.

lower case
      α β    γ   δ ε ζ
      η   θ   ι    κ λ  μ
      ν    ξ      ο π    ρ     σ
      τ   υ φ     χ   ψ     ω

Upper Case
      Α Β    Γ   Δ Ε Ζ
      Η   Θ   Ι    Κ Λ  Μ
      Ν    Ξ      Ο Π    Ρ     Σ
      Τ   Υ Φ     Χ   Ψ     Ω

I have observed that MS consumer grade, HTML producing applications use 
non standard, and sometimes downright strange coding with abandon.  For 
example, there is the penchant for incorporating <span lang="en-us"> 
tags throughout a document.  If the documents were in multiple 
languages, so that one were switching back and forth between English and 
another language, this might make sense, but all the documents I have 
seen with this "feature" have been completely in English.
