I have a simple page which shows ????????????,It is russian language and i want to show it as it is
<!DOCTYPE>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<body>

</body>
</html>
Ensure that:
Your editor is configured to save the file using UTF-8 and
Whatever method you are using to put the file on the server is not mangling the encoding (e.g. use FTP binary mode and not text mode) and
Your server is not sending a Content-Type HTTP response header that contradicts (and overrides) the document level declaration that the document is UTF-8.

I've created a file with the following code in lua:
local f = io.open("./data/myfile.html", "w")
f:write(text)
f:close()
String is stored in the file is Persian. When the file is opened letters are illegible. Like the screenshot below:

How I fix it?
Lua doesn't care about encoding. If your Lua source texts are already in utf-8, then you should just add "meta" tag in html "head" section.
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
</head>
If your html version is earlier than html5, then use older construct:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
</head>
I have used the following code in my head tag.
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Admin Panel</title>
</head>
I have characters of other language which is supported by UTF-8 encoding in my web page. But when i save my html file it showed me error The document's current encoding can not correctly save all of the characters within the document. You may want to change to UTF-8 or an encoding that supports the special characters in this document.
I have already using UTF-8. How to fix this?
You are not using UTF-8. You have just included some markup which tells the browser you are using UTF-8.
That error message sounds like it is coming from your editor. You need to configure your editor to save in UTF-8.
In my html document, I have my html as:
<html>
<head><title>title</title></head>
<body> <div>विजय कदम</div> </body>
</html>
I am getting output as:
विजय कदम
Any idea? what do I need to specify?
Save your file in UTF-8 encoding
Add meta tag to the html to support UTF-8
Make sure your server supports UTF-8 encoding, an example for Apache.
How to change the page encoding to UTF-8:
Add the following tag to the HTML:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
Or the HTML5 equivalent:
<meta charset="utf-8" />
for more information about characters encoding check this out.
You need an editor that saves in Unicode UTF-8.
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
you can also use a converter to display hindi. link: http://vikku.info/indian-language-unicode-converter/hindi-unicode-converter.html what you do is, you paste html text. Hope this helps!
Please see the code below
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<div>
¿Hola cómo está?
</div>
</body>
</html>
In this code, i want to print the characters properly as given in the file. 1 solution is to save the file in UTF-8 format. Is there any other way of doing it?
Saving the file as UTF-8 is insufficient. You should also signal the HTTP client (browser) that it's a UTF-8 document.
This can be done in two ways:
By forcing the server to send appropriate headers - this usually means you must have the ability to at least somewhat alter the server's configuration.
Insert <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" /> into <head> element.
To your original question, the encoding of the PHP file can be different - you'll just have to re-encode the string from the local encoding to UTF-8 before you send it.
Use HTML symbols such as £ for example.

Lets say I have the following file in called index in the directory D:\Experimental:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" >
<head>
<title>Minimal XHTML 1.1 Document</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>This is a minimal XHTML 1.1 document.</p>
</body>
</html>
If I open the link
file:///D:/experimental/index.html
I get to see the html, but it seems that the character encoding defaults to Western (ISO-8859-1), I can see this when I click view -> character encoding in firefox.
I want to display this in UTF-8 because Western (ISO-8859-1) doesn't display some characters correctly. Does anyone know how to fix this?
You should include:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
in your HEAD element.
Edit
I've just tried your example in Firefox on the Mac, and even without the meta tag, it correctly interprets the document as UTF-8. The Standard seems to indicate that it should use the XML processing instruction, but that you should also use the correct HTTP headers. Since you're not sending headers (because you're not using HTTP) you can specify them with the meta tag.
Maybe try adding
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
in <head> section?
When loading files from disk, your browser does not have an HTTP Content-Type header to read the encoding from, so it guesses. To guess the document encoding it uses your operative systems current encoding, the actual bytes that are in the files and information inside the file itself.
As Jonathan wrote, you can add a
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
element that will help the browser using the correct content type. Anyway, note that that element will often be ignored by browsers if your document is sent from a misconfigured HTTP server that explicitly specifies another encoding the Content-Type header.
