"?" (question mark) appearing here and there

  1. Hello,

    I'm quite happy with my bbpress forum but I just noticed that there are some strange "?" appearing in the forum name for example.

    It's strange, do you know what it is?

  2. As far as I can see, the question marks appear on Firefox wherever an "em dash" (--) should be. (On IE they are small boxes, and on Opera question marks inside a diamond.) This basically suggests that the character there is for one reason or another something that these browsers can't display.

    I don't know why, though. Have you modified your template files?

  3. Ok I see what you mean. I modified some stuffs about plugins and I confess that I think (but I'm not sure) that it didn't appear like that before...

  4. Some thing in your stack is not utf-8 friendly. Check your Apache configuration to make sure that utf-8 character set is supported and set properly.

  5. Thanks. I found that it was the fault of my PHP editor, Namo, which changed the file in a bad way. I then edited with Wordpad and everything works great now!
