Norwegian characters.

    I have problems with the Norwegian characters æ,ø and å.
    They seems to be working all right when I use the browser in a normal way, but when i use a hyperlink from word, they all appears wrong. That also happens when I use the meta tag analyzer.

    It seems like I have missed out a language setting or something....

    I´ve set the language for the website like this:

    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
    charset= iso-8859-1" />
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="NO" lang="no"/>

    Anyone that can help me solving this problem?

    Try adding this to your .htaccess file

    
    
    AddLanguage no .no
    
    Code (markup):
    Oops, you are talking about ASP files and htaccess does not apply for Windows Servers, let me see if I can find a way :rolleyes:

    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
    or try to encode them Web Safe Numeric Characters. I have a software of that type for download on my site

    Try using utf-8 instead of iso-8859-1 for your charset.
    Btw, are you norwegian? Then you should check out a norwegian DP lookalike, Webforumet.no !

    The problem i get when encoding them to Web Safe Numeric Characters is that the index page is 60% feeded from other sites (news, updated weather...) so I will not manage to do that to all text.
