Hi!

Tonight, I decided to upgrade from version 7.x to 9.x.

My forum is in French Canadian and now all accent letters as been replaced by questions mark �.

How can I display the characters like é, à, ê, correctly?

This is how it look now :

Enseigne ext�rieur � vendre

Thanks for your help!

Open in notepad the file includes/setup_options_inc.asp and change the page encoding near the bottom of the page from UTF-8 to iso-8859-1
