This is a potential problem source. Can you locate the php.ini file, and see precisely what value is set for the default_charset value? By default, this is set to empty, and that kicks the can up to Apache, which may not be configured to send Unicode by default. > > When I view source as shown below UTF-8 encoding is sent to the > browser, however the £ symbol is still unrecognised. What do you see if you use a static HTML file, viewed locally (file / open), with the charset mime tag set to utf-8 -- instead of viewing from your server?
