I would recommend setting UTF-8 as the Content-type via PHP itself: header('Content-type: UTF-8') - do it as one of the first things when you're ready to output the HTML.
UTF-8 is a charset, not a Content-type. A quick test shows that the HTTP header output from Apache would contain: Content-Type: UTF-8 The correct way - if one wants utf-8 as charset - is: header("Content-Type: index/html; charset=utf-8");
Hi All, yes, I've tried that as well, with no success. As I've stated, people, the static J renders fine, just not the dynamic stuff. Cheers. Mark Sargent. Hi All,

actually, if I add this, header("Content-Type: index/html; charset=utf-8"); as suggested, firefox prompts to download the page, instead of just displaying the page. You have chosen to open

    productdetails.php

which is a : PHP file from: http://localhost/ What should firefox do with this file? Open with Browse.. Save to disk Weird, what's with that. Cheers. Mark Sargent.
