IE Problems With Ellipses

Post by jackpf »

Hi all,

Just wondering why the character "…" does not display correctly on IE - it displays as "�". It's fine for all other browsers. I have specified UTF-8 as my content encoding.

Here's an example: http://jackpf.co.uk/index.php?action=forum&forum=2043
You see the music thread (at the top), the pagination links should be separated by an ellipses, but instead it displays a square or something.

Any help, or even an explanation would be awesome.

Thanks,
Jack.
