I'm having a problem with fonts in Article 1.00

I have some articles with Russian(Cyrillic) text.

On my localhost I have no problem. Cyrillic fonts appear.

In one website I have, there's no problem. Cyrillic fonts appear. It was never an issue.

In the other website, which has a lot of Cyrillic, and is on a different server, the text appears as question marks

Anyone know how I can change this?

TIA

Re: Article 1.00 Font problem

Would this have anything to do with the following in the 2.3.3 guide in the news story

Quote:

Upgrading a non UTF-8 site:

UTF-8 encoding has been introduced into XOOPS 2.3 as default charset. However, there might be some problems with converting existent websites from non UTF-8 charset to UTF-8.
Before there is a good enough solution for this conversion, following settings are recommended when you upgrade an existent website if you are not an experienced user:
- Select "Do not change" option in "Database character set and collation" step during upgrade process
- Modify /languages/yourlanguage/global.php to use existent _CHARSET value
If it has been changed to UTF-8 in your new global.php file to


define('_CHARSET''UTF-8');
change it back to what it was beforee.g.:

define('_CHARSET''ISO-8859-1');


I really don't understand all this charset stuff, but one of my sites DB uses ISO-8859-1, the others use UTF-8, but all my sites are in english so it may not be relevant to your situation Frank, anyway, easy enough to try and see if it makes any difference.

Regardless I have bumped your post lol.
