    Hello All

    how should I solve the problem with international characters on the websites.
    I recently moved site to new server and this problem started.
    Belgi�
    Dani�l

    I reinstall locales and changed the apache2.conf AddDefault... with utf-8.

    I had the problem few years ago but can not remember the sollution.
    I only see blocks and not the special characters..

    Many thanks!

    Please put
    Code:
    AddDefaultCharset ISO-8859-1
    in your Apache configuration and restart Apache.

    I uncommented the line and changed AddDefaultCharset utf-8 to AddDefaultCharset ISO-8859-1

    I also changed
    /etc/apache2/conf.d/charset

    but that does not help.
    I had it before on a server but can't not remember the sollution.. duh...
    It's a xen client..

    some more tips to try??
    thanks
    Raymond
