You could try to specify the encoding you're using by adding this line to
your HTML file:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>

thanks, this did the work


In all, there are three ways to tell the browser that a page is in UTF-8; they can be used together, but of course they shouldn't disagree (if they do, there are precedence rules, which I don't remember):

1. The server may send an HTTP header specifying it, such as:

Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

This is usually beyond the reach of the author of the page, but the server itself ought to help itself with the following two criteria if it recognises a file as HTML or XHTML.

2. The file may start with a BOM (the codepoint U+FEFF, represented in UTF-8 as the three bytes 0xEF 0xBB 0xBF). This BOM, if present, must be at the very start, even before any <!DOCTYPE or <html>. Vim sets it on Unicode files which have the buffer-local Boolean option 'bomb' on.

3. An HTML file may include within its <head> section a tag, which for UTF-8 would be <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">, meaning that this file "should" be served with the header mentioned above under 1. This tag is never paired; in XHTML it must therefore end with />


Best regards,
Tony.
