MAke sure your page is set to Unicode, not Automatic, in the Output pane of the Inspector.

Hi Walt
Just tried that, also changed it in Document Set up - text. But still not showing as £ signs. Any other thoughts? I have tried other fonts but makes no difference.

That character should show just fine in any font – it’s not like it’s some weird emoticon or something. Are you using WebYep in this page by any chance? You may need to make a change to your WebYep configuration to have it use UTF-8 text encoding as well. Search this list for ‘WebYep Unicode’. It’s been a topic of discussion recently.

No Not using web yep as yet (but I am going to on this section when the site goes live). It’s strange, this is not an issue I’ve had before.

If you look in the source code of the page that you linked to initially, you will see that there is a big bunch of WebYep code in the page head (and WebYep code should always be “eaten” by the server – only HTML should remain when it’s served to the visitor). You may want to look into that.

Hi Walt
That is probably because there is web yep on other parts of the site but this problem is also happening when I preview the site in Freeway on my Mac

Maybe an easier way to check this would be to look at the page code of the
page in question and see if something like the following appears near the
beginning of the code:
<meta charset="UTF-8">
or
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
The “charset=UTF-8” bit being the important part. Check that out and let us
know.

It’s there. I am baffled why the code wouldn’t be coming out correctly. Maybe pasted from Word?

Okay, I went back to the original post link - I know, should have checked
it first - and it is an .html page with a load of un-executed php code
before the head - would that kibosh anything?

Oh, and I guess that I can see the £ pound signs, preceded by whatever this
is (¬)

Yeah, I think it’s the PHP code in the HTML page thing. The page isn’t being rendered correctly because it’s invalid (any content besides the doctype before the opening tag will do that).

Hi Walt.
You were right I had started to put the web yep on by adding the page init code then decided to add the web yep after the design had been finalised. I have removed it now and all is fine.
Many thanks
