I would be grateful for any advice on this. I think the problem is a mismatch between the declare and actual character sets in your pages. For example, the About page (http://www.flvc.org.uk/crisp/new/pages/about.html) is declared to be iso-8859-1: <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" /> But the actual text contains UTF-8 encoding of the GBPound sign (shown in <hex>): --- The funding includes a follow-on grant from the Big Lottery Fund (formerly the Community Fund) for <C2><A3>176,000, <C2><A3>110,000 from the European Social Fund... --- I think if you changed the charset declaration to utf-8, you'll find the page will render correctly. There seems to be a slightly different problem on the home page, which the Validator flags as an HTTP-header vs HTML-header encoding mismatch: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.flvc.org.uk/crisp/new/index.html - ChuckReceived on Thursday, 6 April 2006 02:22:35 UTC
