Hello,
 
I'm now moving my forum's DB to JodoHost server.
 
Meanwile i tried to move it first to a free web hosting at "1asp"
 
The problem is that when i copy the DB access file to a new server, all the topics aren't displayed properly.
 
Instead of "real words" it replaced with "???????" .
 
I have to mention that the forum is in hebrew and all the words in hebrew replaced with "?????". The english words displayed correctly.
 
I understand that i should change something at header.asp file
but i dont know what code should i write there?
 
Can someone help me with this issue?
Thanks

The server may not support your character set.

You could try placing a meta tag in the head of the page setting the page encoding.

What should i write at the "meta tag" ?

Another point ,is that when i wish to make a new post(on the new server) it displays the letters correctly! but when i copyed the DB to the same server it didnt displayed it correctly.

I don't know what the meta tag is for your character set.

What character set meta do you normally put in your web pages? You just need to copy that.

This site uses:-
<meta name="charset" content="ISO-8859-1">
For western character sets
