HI All,

I am using one editor for stored the description data along with some special characters(ex:Bullet symbol). this data are stored sucessfully in database (mysql) i checked.

the format as per following : <ul><li>string1</li><li>string2</li><li>string3</li> </ul>.

But in Frontend (Home page) the Bullet symbol is not dislayed.

i copy the source code and save as one seperate html file.This HTML file showing Bullet Symbol.

But Home page.php file not showing Bullet symbol.

i put the echo stmt for description variable $content. this variable also not displayed the bullet symbol. Ex : $content= stripslashes($row[3]);

i don't know the reason.. what is the problem..

Kindly advice to solve this issue.

Many thanks

Senthilkumar

My guess: you used (or specified) the wrong encoding.
