I have a website with multi-language my page encoding is utf-8, when i use encoding utf-8 it shows all languages but page goes to left and auto margin does not work. when i turn off utf-8 then it shows page in middle (that i want) but all languages turns into boxes.
here is my page encoding
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
I have open pages in text editor and saved as with encoding utf-8
when i save as encoding ANSI its layout works fine like i mention below and for utf-8 not
How can I solve that issue?
This issue comes in IE i am using IE9
Do you get the same issues with just using:
<meta charset="utf-8">

I have set my coding on website using <meta charset="Utf-8"> I have it right written, so if there is a mistake, it is not in my website. Now.. It does not work. I think it is because of website coding is set by "windows-1208" or something like that. But I can not find out how to fix this, because is defined by my computer... any ideas?
<meta charset="Utf-8"> tells the browser to display the page in UTF-8. But if you used an other encoding in your editor (e.g. windows-1208 or so) and saved your html page in that encoding, the page won't be displayed correctly.
Make sure, you saved your file in the same encoding as you declared in the meta tag.
To fix it, open the html document in e.g. Notepad++, choose in the menu «Encoding» «Encode in UTF-8 without BOM»
When I type Korean in my html code and open it through my browser, Korean is not recognized by the browser and prints some weird words. What shall I do?
There must be few mistakes you are making.
First, You should have a doctype specified on your HTML page. Use HTML5 doctype
<!DOCTYPE html>
Second, you should specify the character encoding of the document as well. So, add:
<meta charset="utf-8" />
In your head section. Or for a longer version with better cross browser compatibility use:
<meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=utf-8'>
Also as Juhana said, your file must be saved with same encoding (i.e. Unicode UTF-8) to be able to store Unicode characters and display them.
I'm working on my first phonegap application, an android based simple form app.
My problem is that all my non-latin characters appear unreadable.
I added the content meta tag with utf-8, made sure I saved the file as utf-8, made sure to use font with the needed letters and also added xml:lang to the decleration.
Couldn't find any other idea, because i'm a web dev and this usually solves these issues...
Maybe someone has any idea?
feels like my questions back when I just started web development :)
Thanks!
Just add meta:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
If you are using Eclipse, which is default for the PhoneGap Android, make sure you applied the utf-8 text file encoding. (Project - Properties - Resource: Text File Encoding - Other [UTF-8]).
The meta tag should also be in your index.html
<head>
<meta charset=utf-8>
...
</head>
sometime it happens from visual studio page Unicode setting: for this go to file > advance save options > select Unicode utf 8 with signature and then click ok.
Unusual problem here: I have an app that uses a text file which contains a few '€' symbols as well as other text in a text file to populate a mysql database. When rendered locally, the € symbol looks fine, but on the linux server and out on the web in html, it looks like this in some browsers:
€2
can anyone suggest a solution
Set the charset in the headers or a <META> element to UTF-8 so that it isn't processed as CP1250.
Use an UTF-8 encoding type on your file and make sure you add a content-type meta tag to your page:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
Hope this helps !
If you are viewing your text (.txt) file as a text and not HTML in browsers window, setting
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
will not do the job as you are dealing with text file,
so tags will not be "hidden", plus it may potentially (even most likely) send garbage to mysql database you are trying to populate (e.g. by auto-harvesting posted online file).
So, if in browser window instead of:
€ 123.39
you are seeing
€2 123.39
problem is not with quality of your text file, but with the way browser handles encoding.
If you need to copy and paste displayed file and "€2" is in the way,
try simply setting your browser default encoding to unicode (UTF-8).
In FF you want to do it here:
Tools-> Options-> Content (tab)-> Fonts&Colors-> Advanced-> Default Char. Encoding
Once there select UTF-8 encoding.
Remember thou that sometimes page reload may not be enough to see changes, due to browser cache. In such case, restart your browser.
the page in question is Apple Amor
You can see that in the footer the spanish vowels seem to be showing properly , but in the slide down bar(header) they get messed up.
Any ideas why ?
Your page is encoded in ISO-8859-1. Wherever that header comes from, it is most likely encoded in UTF-8.
You would have to change the character set of your page to UTF-8 (that would probably have some consequences) or convert the incoming data from the header. I don't know where it's coming from, so it's hard to tell what the right method would be.
Mandatory basic reading on the issue: The Absolute Minimum Every Software Developer Absolutely, Positively Must Know About Unicode and Character Sets (No Excuses!)
Your page source shows that you're using:
<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
Note that the above tag is not well formed. Where is its closing character "/"? Content-Type should be between double quotes.
Add this tag to your page and test:
<html lang="es">
If that doesn't solve your problem try to change the charset tag to:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
