Hi,

i am encountering an issue using TinyMCE to insert html text into a database. On a PC when using the acute e in html text it is inserted as is...

However, on using a mac the acute e changes into a "�" when cut and pasted from word. I am not a Mac user so i am not familiar with issues such as this.

can someone advise me on appropriate steps to convert these "�" into a é.

can i use a php function to translate this entity?

Kendall

What charset are you using in your HTML?

i.e.

Code: Select all

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
