Problem with "è" in content.php

[Kalibukbuk]

I have a problem with the è in a content.php page.

The è is shown as " è ".

however, in a body.php the "è" is shown as it is.

Where does it go wrong?

p.s. i am a bit new to php.

Thanx in advance

how did you save the file? it seems to be a text encoding problem
u could save it as different encoding or if you see that in a results server could think thats not encoding u want to:-)

u might try to enforse encoding (example for UTF-8):

header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
u need to use it at the very begining of the script

i hope it helps

Have you tried to ascii or HTML encode it?

& #232; (without the space) or è should do the trick. (hopefully)

When using special characters like that it's always best to encode them :)

If that doesn't work, htmlspecialchar s() or htmlentities() should be able to peform the operation (but not quite sure how since i rarely work with those kind of characters)

Check out http://www.asciitable.com or http://www.lookuptables.com, a good resource
