simpli Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Hi, My accented characters are still not working. I am on FF on a mac. When I do page info I see the following encoding: ISO-8859-1. I believe this encoding allows accented french characters right? My firefox is an english version however. Is it the reason I cannot see the accents? Or is there some other setting I have to take care of? Thanks for helping.

sKunKbad Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 You should go to an HTML character reference, like http://webdesign.about.com/library/bl_htmlcodes.htm, and look at the "Friendly Code".

simpli Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 Found the problem. The text you are outputting must also be in UTF. That means if you are using login.php you have to save it as a UTF (or whatever encoding you using)!
