    Do I need to replace every french character to get it validated? for example "d’excellents", if I put "d’excellents" everything is ok otherwise I get validator error.

    Is there an easier way?

    I don't get validation errors when using Spanish characters and symbols, I don't know why you are getting them. Are you declaring an encoding type in your header?

    well, if it's a quote or non-escaped character you might not pass validation. Please do a test, and post your results here.

    Now I have a character that I even can not replace it.:confused:

    Take a look at this url and try to validate it.
    test page

    This page only has this line "L’hôtel Britannia est idéalement situé et dispose de services et d'é " and I get the following error:
    Any idea?
