copyright symbol -© doesn't show up
« on: May 04, 2006, 10:01:12 am »
I use the template.html to redesign a gallery and at the bottom of the <body> html I used a copyright symbol - © (alt0169), using Tahoma.

Shows up fine while the template.html is on my HD, but once it's in the relevant themes folder online the symbol turns into a (?). I tried using more common fonts like Arial etc but nothing changes it.

Any solutions? I prefer to use © to (c).

You're probably using utf-8 encoding (blindly guessing). The alt0169 shortcut refers to iso8859-1 only afaik.
Option 1: get an editor that is capable to save your template in utf-8
Option 2: use html entities, i.e. &copy;

For details, post a link to your coppermine site.

do not change the meta tag in template.html, but the encoding setting in coppermine's config!
