UTF-8 & ISO-8859-2 Problem

I've got a problem with html encoding. I work on PSPad. I set utf-8 as charset in my files and utf-8 as a file format and it look fine on localhost but doesn't on a server. When i change file format to iso it works on a server but doesn't on localhost and when i close PSPad and reopen the file it totaly breaks some of the characters. Do u have any solution? It so annoying! :) thanks K.

Make sure that the foreign server sends a charset declaration as well. What server software do you use? In Apache you could achieve it by adding a .htaccess file with the following content:

AddCharset utf-8 .html

Also make sure that you add a

 <meta charset="utf-8">

declaration (HTML5) or a

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

To the HTML file header.

Edit: corrected typos
