Question

My <meta charset="utf-8">

and I’m having special charcter problem html content on web server (production) only on my local server (Wamp) it’s fine

For example this India’s looks fine on local but on server it looks like this India’s

And I have lots of html content for a big site. If I would go to fix every charcter manually it will take time and Also i don’t see this problem on local so everytime I need to fix and upload to server to chek the issue has been solved or not

my questions

• How can i make it possible to my local server to show html with
  charcter problem India’s
• Is there a way to solve this problem automatically?

Answer 1

It could also be a problem of the default-charset configuration of your web server. If you use apache put

AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

in a .htaccess file in your root directory.
