I have created web page using Chinese. When I view the page with Google chrome, all Chinese characters are corrupted. Do I have to add something in HTML page?

There are two ways to define the encoding of your page. You should include inside your <head> tags an encoding tag, two ways to do that follow below:

Short way: 

<meta charset="utf-8">

Long way:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">

You can have more details about the difference between these two ways in this question:

If you want to see a real example, take a look in the weibo.com source code at this line of code.

Make sure to use UTF-8 or a comparable encoding. This can be made sure in the http headers:

Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
