Baxtex Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I am confused about which char set i should use on my webbpage. I'm going to use letters like Å,Ä,Ö on my homepage. So should i use this Meta tag then?: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> or should i use this?: <meta http-equiv="content-Type" content="text/html;charset=ytf-8"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 UTF-8 works for all normal characters. Just be sure that your HTML editor is saving the file as UTF-8 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baxtex Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 What do you mean?Codeing manually, with notepad++.But when i'm using UTF, i just get Question marks where my ÅÄÖ letters should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Notepad++ open the "Encoding" menu and select "Encode in UTF-8 without BOM" before saving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baxtex Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 Ok, but i already have a document in ANSI. So i supose i should have saved it in UTF-8 without BOM before i saved it? There are however a button which says convert to:For example UTF-8 without BOM, but it doesn't seem to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescientist Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 i would just copy and paste your code into a new document, and then save it using the suggested method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
