    I have a problem with Slovak language on my blog: http://spanielsko.la8.eu/

    Special Slovak characters like ž, č, á show like ?.

    What should I edit?

    Hi!

    Your headers show utf-8:

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

    But your text seems to be created with other charset.

    In firefox go to View >> Character Encoding and you will see "Central European"

    You should match these (I guess put it all at utf-8).

    Did you write the text directly in wordpress? Or did you write in word and then copy paste?

    I have done that, it's better, but č, ť and ľ still don't show.

    It doesn't show both when I write it directly in WP or do copy & paste.

    You may need to also convert the databases to a different charset. Can you open up your MySQL interface (Many hosters use a program called phpmyadmin. Please look for that.) and tell us what charset your databases are in please?
