Is that an Apache setting which needs adjustment?
Help please!
Thanks a lot.

How does it look in your document on the server? Do you have a paragraph element with those exact html entities coded there?
Yes I've put the string between <p> tags in an html page. But before trying that, I've tried with a php page, because I thought it might be php causing the problem.
I don't know how to show you how it looks like: I can't include urls in this message, can't attach images. It's cyrillic characters.
In the server, when I do "cat index.html" it looks perfect, if that is what you meant. That's why I thought it might be the web server, but I don't know what part. Any ideas?
Thanks a lot.
You may also find it helpful to download and install the "Live HTTP Headers" add-on for Firefox, which will give you a good look at the character set, language, and encoding response headers sent by your server to the browser. If any of these are incorrect, the characters on your site may be incorrect or garbled when rendered by the browser.

Exactly what I meant. And from your first message ...
where it should show this:αινσϊΡρ
So you have something like this in your document ...
<p>αινσϊΡρ</p>
<p>бйнуъСс</p>
The advice from jdMorgan duly noted, you will also want to have a look at any meta element you might be sending along too. Make sure you are using an appropriate charset attribute in an http-equiv meta:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
