what a brilliant way of making us read the front page! :lol:
On a serious note...I have had a look too and any part of 'my' front page which refers to money has a £ sign not a ?. Perhaps your post was seen and it has been rectified?

Nope....appears to be my browser's fault. It upgraded itself a few weeks ago and changed the character encoding to Unicode UFT-8 without me realising....at least I assume that's when it happened.
Always wondered what changing the viewing code did....and now I know.

Mine (Firefox) did the same. Now I get little boxy symbols, which when magnified appear to tell me what they stand for (like "FF" for form feed) instead of displaying them properly.
Anyone know what I should change encoding to in order to see pound signs etc displayed properly?
I changed from Internet Explorer, after I read today's bbc report
I went over to firefox, my computer now appears to be working better than it did before, but this is one of the few forums I have been able to access tonight,
Firefox has done something, I know not what,
oh and I didn't know this forum had a front page.........the mind boggles this evening!!:roll:

Western(ISO-8859-1).............at least it worked for me.

This should really be covered by the <meta> tags in the <head> section of the HTML, just to avoid confusion.
