Hi,

I recently updated my system to Fedora4. Since the update, "lines like this" now appear like?lines like this?. Any ", ' or character appears as a? questio mark.

I noticed on one of Fedora's own webpages: [fedora.redhat.com...] it is doing the same thing.

I put it down to apache I think, but it may not be?

* it has nothing to do with PHP, as these are plain HTML files.
* if i 'cat' the file in the shell, the file appears as normal HOWEVER, if i 'nano' the file in the shell, weird ^A escape characters are in place of the " or ' 's.

Any help would be GREATLY! appreciated, i have searched the web far and wide for a solution.

Cheers,

Sam.

It seems to have something to do with the document encoding. The example on redhat claims to be encoded in UTF-8, but it only looks right if you manually switch your browser to ISO.

Maybe the upgrade changed the default encoding?
