Hello,
Excuse me for my bad english, but i’m French (nobody’s perfect)
Excuse me for my bad understanding of the Computer/Internet/web/website-builder language but i’m computer user for only 35 years and webmaster only for 15 years.
I used Macromedia Dreamweaver for many years
I am retired and have a site only for my associations (choir and historic)
That’s why I’m often overwhelmed by the new technologies and I don’t understand all the terms of the web
I join the webhost community only 2 monthes ago.
I use Macromedia on my XP computer and KompoZer on my WIN7
till two days ago all was going well.
But now, the pages submitted appear with an ? in a black diamond instead of the accented characters (they didn’t do it 3 days ago !
I try to change the Meta charset but the browserS don’t account.
SO…
I just do this :
When I look to one of my document on my Firefox Browser : an HTM page, I found the word mus�e
On KompoZer I open this document, open the editing source page and found the word musée
I erase the letter s
Then I publish the doc
Before publishing, KompoZer open e popup window with EC -8182 as discribed on my first message. I click on the OK button and the page is published
I verify on my Firefox Browser and the letter disapeared and I have the word mu�e
On Kompozer I re-open this document, open the editing source page and found the word muée
I write é in place of the é and (in the source page) I have the word muée
Then I publish the doc
Before publishing, KompoZer open e popup window with EC -8182 as discribed on my first message. I click on the OK button and the page is published
I verify on Firefox and I always have mu�e
When I return in KompoZer on the source page or the preview page I’m back to muée
And that only began 2 days ago : Before, all the pages with
<meta content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"
were working well and I never had the popup EC -8182
Sory but instead of the paragraph :
On Kompozer I re-open this document, open the editing source page and found the word muée
I write é in place of the é and (in the source page) I have the word muée
Then I publish the doc
you must read :
On Kompozer I re-open this document, open the editing source page and found the word muée
I write & e a c u t e ; in place of the é and (in the source page) I have the word muée
Then I publish the doc
First of all, make sure the file is actually saved in UTF-8 format.
Then check that you have in your HTML header.
You can also try calling header(‘Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8’); at the beginning of your PHP script or adding AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 to your .htaccess file.
