You may  need to use the correct code page or html endcoding, your header class should be modified to show the Spanish language like using the meta tag  and the language tag like this in the first line in the header.

So your header should be something like this which is for Arabic (ar) language:


Code: HTML    Select All    Expand All
<br /><br />&lt;HTML dir=&quot;rtl&quot; lang=&quot;ar&quot;&gt;</p><p>&lt;html&gt;<br />&lt;head&gt;<br />&lt;meta http-equiv=&quot;Content-Language&quot; content=&quot;ar&quot;&gt;<br />&lt;meta http-equiv=&quot;Content-Type&quot; content=&quot;text/html; charset=windows-1256&quot;&gt;<br />

You need to set the language name and charset in the code above to your language

Anyway this is an html encoding issue, either you need to do as I said above or you need your browser support this coding page. Try to create a static html page say text.html and put your text in it and upload it to your server and test it to see that your server and your browser supports this code page encoding.

i`ve got other websites runing on the same server without this problem, also i installed a forum on a sidepage to Auctionawy and i can use this symbols on the forums.\ \ i tryed what you said before but im probably doing something wrong, if you can seend me the exact code or mark the parts i need to modify that`ll be great. The website looks really ugly and unfinished with those characters changed for other random ones.

May be you typed this text with worng encoding, try to reneter this text again using Internet Explorer, also you may try to use MS Frontpage to make/convert your text unicode in the form &xxxx;.

Your header seems not formated, since your other installation is working fine, just copy the Header class to your new installation.

Try to reinstall or install a new version on another folder and test. As I said above since your forums is working, compare the class header code and make your corrections.

"rtl" means right-to-left like Arabic language, so I think you need to replace it n your header with "ltr" which means left-to-right like English.
