I find exactly the same strange characters (displayed as � on my machine)
in the searched pages, e.g. when searching for "storm" and following
the first link to http://mauiprodws.pdc.org/storm_surges.php, and then
looking inside the page source for "storm" again, I get

<img border="0" src="images/sub_bullet.gif" align="absmiddle" width="2" height="2">  
         Storm Surge</a>

So there's something wrong with your PHP script rather than with htdig.
It's the old GIGO principle: Garbage in, Garbage out.
