websites wont display £ debian sarge 3.1

I have the server all set up but cant figure out how to get the website to display £ .. all I get is a box.. server is debian sarge 3.1

see here
http://www.englandlimousines.com/hourly-rates.html

this is a site on this server, its basic html.

 

this is a basic encoding problem. you dont have charset-metatag in limousine-pages, like you have in boon-*-pages.
you have to either add the tag or convert all pound-signs to html-characters.

 

is there also a display problem when you use £ as sign?

 

re

what tag? I changed the html to show the £ and they showed up.. how do i add the tag.. and what is it?

and thanks so much guys.

 

you could add this line on hourly-rates.html-file:

Code:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

this charset seemed right for this file. you could but it right under the other meta-tag there seems to be. More information about charsets is there:
http://www.w3.org/International/O-charset

and no problem, i am glad if this helped you at all
