Central European Characters not displaying in proper font
Permalink
Hello there everyone. I have a problem here. I have a bit of hard time with my hardcoded block, but that's not the real problem. I have there some characters like 'ř' and 'č'. I want them to be displayed by special font. The font is able to do it and did it already while used in Photoshop. Now I coded the text into the place where it should be, used @font-face rule to apply font, since it's not standard one. And now when in the file etc, the CE chars doesnt want to show up in the font I chose, applied etc ... My bet is on some sort of encoding failure but don't know. Any help or advice please?
Thank you beforehand.
Thank you beforehand.
your database will need to be in an acceptable format to hold those characters. UTF-8 works well for Chinese, I know. My server defaults to Latin-1. there is a conversion script I've seen via google but I've never used it.
Thanks for answer, well I will test remade DB, thou it is set to UTF-8 by default. Same goes for every single php file I coded or was changing anyhow.
Font is Helvetica Neue CE 25 Ultra Light - default charset of font is latin-1, but both chars I want to have displayed are in the font and in DB latin-1 and utf-8.
Editing is done by original licensed DW CS5. I think it is something about PHP that is influencing it. Same like I had problem with img and had to sue img tag with php code because normal img tag wouldn't show anything due to PHP. Anything like xml:lang= or lang= options maybe? For setting correct language region? I found that in Header element ofc but there again is PHP code which is far beyond my capability for now.

Solved thou not exactly properly. I entered the characters by their ID in current font to be displayed correctly.
