GingerRobot Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 You're missing a double quote when you define the charset: change: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> to: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset="utf-8" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revraz Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 They appear as symbols in the DB or on the webpage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebadbad Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 You're missing a double quote when you define the charset: change: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> to: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset="utf-8" /> That's absolutely wrong. The content attribute should contain text/html; charset=utf-8. But I guess you know, an just overlooked it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
