I am also frustrated with this issue and have been reading on internet every bit I can make sense of but still have no clue on how to solve this, I have problem with Norwegian language.
I am using $.get to get content from database processed by a php file nsdb.php. This file takes out the html content from database and send by echo. After I inject this echoed html in my div, I get ? instead of special characters. The meta on my page is this <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> and the header requesst as I see in firebug is this Accept-Charset ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 I just don't understand this charset issue. May some learned solul throw some light on this issue in a little detail. thanks in advance. On Jun 3, 3:00 pm, "Ⓙⓐⓚⓔ" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I don't think there is a quick and dirty solution.
