On a barebones Windows 7 / IE 9 computer, IE has some trouble rendering the calendar back and forth arrows:

I have the same problem in Chrome 19. I can see no arrows at all.

After some poking around, it's because the computer has no font to display the "❯" (U+276F) character. I don't think there's a way to detect that in JavaScript. Could there be a fallback?

With me it is not the case because the problem appears only in Chrome (I don't have IE9 - in IE8 it woks fine and in IE7 it is not working at all)
