Re: [grauchut] weird text

Dave I had added spellchecker to TinyMCE. I removed it and the text was ok. Are you guys planning on adding this as an update version. Thanks Glenn

The funny characters usually mean the browser doesn't know how to display the character. You usually get it with foreign character and MS Word characters like angled quotes (like this " but angled).

We store all our content as UTF8 charset, which should support everything. Usually if you have a tag in your page like this it will use the same charset:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />

In Firefox you can see what charset a page is being displayed under: Tools > Page Info > Encoding

If it's not UTF8 then you need to add that tag to the head or check your server settings.

We have spellcheck on the list, but it's a little further down. I thought it needed some extra server extensions to work?
