Changed the output of my web server on pages that have that in the .htaccess on the root page to: Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0 Pragma: no-cache Connection: close Vary: Accept-Encoding Content-Encoding: gzip Transfer-Encoding: chunked *Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8* Without it, I get: Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0 Pragma: no-cache Connection: close Vary: Accept-Encoding Content-Encoding: gzip Transfer-Encoding: chunked *Content-Type: text/html* On Thu, Oct 15, 2009 at 5:05 AM, Kevin <[email protected]> wrote: > The override in the top of the HTML header should really be fixing this for > him. > > Good article on Unicode... > > http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Unicode.html > > You are supposed to be able to override the server default with an entry in > .htaccess like: > > AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 > > > Some other ways: > > http://www.askapache.com/htaccess/setting-charset-in-htaccess.html > > > > > On Thu, Oct 15, 2009 at 4:04 AM, The Editor <[email protected]> wrote: > >> >> Don't give up.
