Hi Peter,
What encoding and charset (%c and %C escape codes) is this message containing the section character (§)? I guess you are sending this character from a handset using the default GSM alphabet. This character's hex code is 0x5f and your terminal/database is probably using ASCII or UTF to interpret it into something else. In ASCII it would be interpreted as underscore "_". You will need to write a script that will translate the GSM characters into UTF-8 before presenting it on screen, as browsers and text editors usually do not support GSM encoding.
