• I just tried to enter a post using a feed link from one of the services. However, within the article, ALL of the quatation marks are displayed as either question marks or question marks within a black diamond depending on whether you are using firefox or IE6. Even some of the posts here on the support site are displaying like this. Can anybody tell me why and how do I correct it?

    A link to your blog would be great. But, here are a few things to try. Login to your admin interface and go to options/reading. Make sure that “Encoding for pages and feeds:” is utf-8. You could also try manually editing the articles by manually replacing the characters that are giving errors.

    Hm, I’m not seeing any problems, but my browser may be correcting. One possibility is that the site you are taking the article from does not use the same text encoding.

    I have checked this issue on a couple of other computers here in ths office and using IE6 they all show the question marks in place of the quotes. However, using my machine and firefox, several sites I have been looking at latly show the black diamond instead of the quotes. so it must be something with the way my machine is configured. I guess I will have to look at it closer.
    Thanks anyway

    PS.
