Re: Encoding problem...
Hi,
Many thanks to you both for replying. Perhaps I should have mentioned in my initial post, my front end is Website Baker:
http://www.websitebaker2.org
My HTML code contains the following code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">;
<html xmlns="
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
...
I have been working on the assumption that Website Baker handles UTF8 fine and it is my error. However, you both seem to be suggesting the error lies in the front end, making me wonder if this is a safe assumption.
I've just had a quick recheck - remember I uploaded the database via a mysqldump, scp & mysql command; and the supporting files/framework etc via rsync - and the characters are definitely scrambled when viewed from the website, and display just fine when I view the raw database via phpMyAdmin.
Any pointers would be very much appreciated - I feel I have hit a wall with this now. If you remain convinced this is a front end issue, maybe I would be better closing this post and reposting on a Website Baker specific forum?
Many thanks in advance for your responses,
Chris
