This means i need following characters: Ää,Öö,Üü, Čč ,?? and ??. The database uses utf-8 encoding. In the head of the pages: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/htmlm; charset=utf-8"> I'm developing innetbeans with project encoding utf-8. The Problem: Dynamicaly loaded data (Database) is displayed correctly. With static text i get weird symbols instead of the mentioned above.

Ok this is the scenario. I am developing a website in german an slovene. This means i need following characters:
Ää,Öö,Üü, Čč ,?? and ??.
The database uses utf-8 encoding.
In the head of the pages: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/htmlm; charset=utf-8">
I'm developing innetbeans with project encoding utf-8.

The Problem: Dynamicaly loaded data (Database) is displayed correctly. With static text i get weird symbols instead of the mentioned above.

Any Idea what is going wrong here?

thanks for the help in advance.

@edit
I noticed the C,c with hacek is displayed wrong here to.

Chances are you would need to just change the encoding it uses...

This is the new way to define html5 and the utf-8 charset.

code:

<!doctype html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>

Though you'll want to do a little research in to how html5 works. If you were using XHTML, it might break your layout with a few quirks.
