I have this joomla site. I have two versions of it, both using the same database. One has these characters allover the text. The other seems to be alright. What could be the problem? My database is the same so I don’t believe it is a character set issue on the db. Anyone?

Something is wrong with the encoding. You’re not saying where you get this, so my guess is that it’s the browser. Try to change the page encoding (check the menus of your browser) to
UTF-8(or “Unicode”). That should fix it.If that works, check the code and make sure pages are sent with correct
charsetsettings.Another source of these problems is that the code reads UTF-8 data from the database as bytes and then encodes that again as UTF-8.
