Ok that is odd.

I loaded the page in Chrome, the characters were broken. I forced the encoding to UTF-8 in Chrome the characters were fixed.

I then checked the source of the page and I was sure there was no content type tag. I then reloaded the page and for some reason the characters were fixed. I checked the source again and sure enough there was a correct content type tag.

Did you fix it in the meantime or am I having a pre-first-coffee moment of madness ?


Edit:

Loaded it in FF and the characters are broken with the tag there. I guess Chrome was remembering my forced selection of encoding.

Anyway, what ever is going on it is an encoding issue of some sort, something is confusing the browsers as to the encoding of the page.
