Is it a browser problem? Have you viewed the page in other browsers? dc

Yes I have tried IE, FF and Chrome.
The other weird character that is randomly showing is Â
Other than that rest of the text is fine it's just these two characters not showing properly.

Ok I found one thing that if I load that page in IE and then right click on it then the encoding is set to "Western European (ISO)". And when I select "Unicode (UTF-8)" then it displays the page correctly. But the question is why is it showing Western European (ISO) by default when I have define UTF-8 in my web page?

Another strange thing. Finding 1
---------
If I view the source code of that page, copy source, then create a new html file on my PC, then paste that code and then double click on that file to view then this time encoding is set to UTF-8 but instead of those weird characters it is now showing square boxes! If I select Western European (ISO) then it displays fine! Finding 2
---------
If I save the page on my PC from File --> Save As in browser, then double click on it to open then this time it is set to Western European (ISO) with those weird characters displaying. And when I select UTF-8 then it shows boxes instead of this  character. The other character which is ’ displays fine as ’

have you tried to utf8_encode() the content of the file?
later you can utf8_decode() the content

I tried utf_encode/decode but didn't work....same result.
For the time being I am replacing  with and ’ with ' to make it work but I know that's not the best solution.
