Can't figure this out... really strange

I have just finished coding my design from PSD to CSS / XHTML - and as usual i have now started to break my site up into various includes (header.php menu.php, footer.php etc)

However, for some strange reason, my € signs and copyright symbol (in the footer) do not show correctly since i have converted my site from html to php.

I have set up two versions so that you can compare both of them:

html version: http://ncane.com/evf

php version (with several includes): http://ncane.com/ysk

I have spent nearly two hours trying various different things and i can't see why this is happening,

thanks in advance to anyone who can help me here...

 

solved... should have been using €

 

Or save your documents as UTF8 with no BOM and make sure to send the appropriate header:

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

Code (markup):

That way you can just type the euro symbol and all other symbols straight into your PHP code without having to worry about entities like €.
