    Hello, I have a script that seems to be incompatible on my forum
    http://pastebin.com/nXbizpZy
    It suppose to test your ability on korean captchas. If you get it wrong, it'll output the correct korean and keystrokes to write it.
    However, when I put it on my forum, the korean output is just jibberish. So i'm wondering how I can change the encoding? Thanks

    Do you want to change the encoding of that code (to English, for example)? Or do you want to change the encoding of your site to Korean?

    I wish to change the encoding of the code, not my site.
    I want it to output as Korean as it should.

    The code has no encoding. The site (the HTML) tells the browser what font to use. In Latin fonts, 65 is "A", in a Korean font, 65 is some Korean character. If your site doesn't tell the browser what language it's written in, the browser isn't going to show it correctly.
