Apostrophe coming as question mark

Hi Every one,

When I enter apostrophe in the datacapture template in any text field. After generating the page with PT, in the output file the apostrophes are replaced by question marks.

Does any one know why is this happening. Has it got any thing to do with improper character encoding settings some where?

Typically yes. When the ' is utf-8 encoded inside of a data capture config file, it may come across as ?. We ran into this problem by specifying utf8 in the visual format toolbar configuration file and trying to deply that to a non utf-8 database. I would check your presentation template and HTML specification to make sure both say utf-8.

HI bk99nd,

Both my DCT and PT are set to UTF-8 encoding.

My HTML is also encoded to UTF-8.

Where could the problem be?

My HTML is also encoded to UTF-8...

when you generate html try to include something like the following in the head:[html]
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
[/html]

Thanks for you interest. HTML is also set to UTF-8 encoding.

But still I face this problem.

I too faced the similar problem but some how when I regenerated the page the issue get resolved by itself.

We still not able to find the root cause of the issue.
