    czech characters displayed incorrectly

    hello everybody

    i've been reading this forum for a long time, but seeing as i always found the answer to my problems i never bothered posting. This is not the case for the problem i have now: i am translating a php application in czech, and i can't get the characters to be displayed correctly.

    If i visit a czech site, i can see all characters fine, and if i paste any text into my files and run them on my local web server, they get turned into gobbledygook..

    I checked doctype declarations, language settings, I tried to use both UTF-8 and ISO-8859-2 for the encoding. Nothing.
    I have all the charsets specified in my apache so that should not be the problem, although i don't know where else to look at, seeing as internet pages work well and local files don't...

    Any idea anybody?

    ps the app is built in php but i am having problems with plan html here so i'd exclude any php problem

    thank you very much
    Joe
