Getting a page displayed in Cyrillic

Hi everybody.

I'm in the process of creating translation pages for a number of websites, one of which is in Cyrillic (Russian).

I am having problems displaying the text in FF and IE (it looks fine in Dreamweaver), instead it's being replaced with "??'s".

I thought this could be a character set not being installed, but I checked ru.wikipedia.org and it displays okay.

I think maybe the Document Type Definition is wrong maybe?

Thanks for any help

 

pm me url, I can help maybe

 

Thanks to Pruad, he suggested this solution that works for me

You need to define the character set using either

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251" />

Code (markup):

or

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

Code (markup):

 

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> - this should work fine in all browsers. UTF8 is doing great with Cyrillic
