Hi
Maybe I'm completely wrong, but I think there is a discrepancy between the actual encoding and what is set in the source code of the forum pages.
For me some characters are wrong (Español instead of Español for example)

The source says : <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
But the actual encoding seems to be UTF-8, not iso-8859-1
Am I mistaken ?

Yes, i see the same thing for Español. But the ç in Français shows up normally ... that's weird. Maybe its encoding is the same in iso and utf8 ? I don't know.

ahh, thanks.. the forum is indeed in iso-8859-1, but the 'Español' title of that specific forum was in utf-8.. I've fixed it now, it should appear correctly in iso-8859-1. thanks!
