Dots showing as garbage...

I set up two test pages, one with just a table, with standard opt-8 dots in the text, the other, the same table, but in a page.

The one by itself is fine, the one in the page is showing each dot as "•".

Can someone tell me how I've screwed up here?

Thanks

Ok. How about this. Anyone know the html for option-8?

I have narrowed down the amount of html to two simple tests:

<http://xpinet.info/test.html>

and

<http://xpinet.info/test2.html>

These are just small html pages. The first shows the dots as normal, the second as garbage.

Anyone...?

Further...

I saw that if I added the header < meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" / >

The problem corrected itself.

Unfortunately, this page is for eBay, and they don't allow for header information in the html description.

Anyone know where to put the charset information without having a header...?

html entity column. Put it in in source view.

If you don't have any control over the page headers, you'd just need to make sure your file encoding matches what's being used on eBay. Also, uploading your second test2.html page to your own server may show as jumbled since no encoding info is supplied and the server or browser is defaulting to, probably, ISO-8859-1. Might show up fine on eBay though if they're using UTF-8 encoding.

Hi, Nate, Kath--

Those sound like good ideas. I'll definitely try them both.

Thanks.

All My Best,
