Currency Symbols (Euro, Pound Sterling, etc)

I was wondering how to display currency symbols within app. I've tried to use the HTML codes and HEX codes below for the Euro symbol, but the program just displays the codes - not the Euro symbol. €

var notification = Ti.UI.createNotification()
notification.setMessage('currency: € € €');
notification.show();

Any ideas? Thanks!

    I believe you have to use Unicode entities not HTML entities.

    See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/unicode.html for a list

    Euro would be \u20ac
