Your � didn't display properly at all - I tried ISO-8859-1 and
UTF8.

Hi Per that’s the problem I am having, this is how data from a project I
inherited is saved in the DB and I cant get it to show. 

However I get normal data eg: ème est très haute. To show if its saved like
that in the DB, I just do: 

echo utf8_encode("ème est très haute.");

and it works well. Is there anyway you think I can get the data in the DB to
format correctly perhaps using some sort of string command?

Thanks for your help again.
