The question is ,I hope,simple for someone who knows about character encoding.
This is my site.

Online, the character set is wrong ,I get this weird Â,while on localhost everything is allright.
I know there is a lot of good reading to be done on this subject,but I don’t even know where to start.
There does not seem to be any character encoding issue, just spurious data, namely bytes 0xC3 0x82, which represent the character  when interpreted in UTF-8, which is the declared encoding. Otherwise, the content seems to be all ASCII, because the names are in “internationalized”, i.e. anglicized form, e.g. Djokovic instead of Đoković, Soderling instead of Söderling etc. With this data, it does not matter much how you declare its encoding, since ASCII characters mostly have the same representation anyway.
I have no idea where the bytes come from, but they seem to appear systematically between a comma and a space, so it’s apparently something in the code that generates the table.
