Hi, I have a latin-1 encoded webpage that i'm loading text/html into using .load
When i'm loading in english text everything is fine and dandy although today i had the pages translated and the pages now don't display the special characters properly. I'm pretty sure this has got to do with the fact that the text i'm passing to jquery is latin-1 not utf-8 so it screws up. Here's my js; jQuery(document).ready(function() { jQuery(".overview").click(function() { jQuery("#mainColumn").load("/includes/products/new-sea-page- overview.ssi"); } ); }); I would just change the format of the file to utf-8 but i'm calling in the same file using a virtual include (just incase the user doesnt have javascript enabled) so it needs to be latin-1. I need to somehow keep the file as latin-1 but get jquery/javascript to understand it, either by encoding it as utf-8 (on the fly) or some other crazy means. I'd very much appreciate any help/advice.
