gazfocus Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 I've just copied that code into a HTML file and viewed it in both IE and Firefox and I'm not getting the  that you mentioned. It's worth mentioning though, that you don't need the lines 1 and 4, and delete everything in line 2 apart from <html>. can you send me your 2 css files? I'll PM you my email address.

TheFilmGod Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 It's worth mentioning though, that you don't need the lines 1 and 4... That is incorrect. The first line is the most important line in the whole document. Line 4 is just as important as it states the characters set used. Otherwise, the computer would use the default which sometimes IS NOT english. To answer the question, go into notepad and replace line 4 with: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> Next, change your doctype to Xhtml 1.1. If everything fails, rewrite the page. You may have a hidden character somewhere in the document that the computer doesn't recognize and doesn't show up on notepad... :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFMaBiSmAd Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 The characters are the UTF-8 BOM (search if you don't know what that means.) You need to save the file without the BOM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haku Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 It's worth mentioning though, that you don't need the lines 1 and 4, and delete everything in line 2 apart from <html>. Horrible advice. Line one is necessary for the browser to know what standards to compare your document against. Line four tells the browser what charset to use. And the XLMNS and language attributes in the HTML tag help the browser as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xurion Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 The advice given in this thread made me lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
