UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1

[Wouter]

Hey hi....

Everywhere I'm encouraged to use UTF-8, but how come the Euro sign or the
Copyright sign don't show up in my browser when it's used?

Yet they do show up when ISO-8859-1 is used...

Is there a good readup on the subject somewhere?

TIA

Wouter,

This doesn't have anything to do with PHP. You might try asking in
alt.html.

That's because you saved it with an editor which saves the file in
ISO-8859-1

So use another or use html-entities (what's no more needed with utf-8).
