Foreign Letters

Featured Replies

I have this weird problem on my computer. Any letter that isn't found in the English letter is replaced by a ? in a diamond. It also sometimes happens with punctuation (especially ' and ?)

 

Is there any way to fix it? I was looking up lyrics and I got this

Just a bit frustrating. :P

Maybe your fonts are broken? I'm not sure. I know that's caused by missing characters in font files, but not sure why it might have happened or which ones you'd need to replace.

Mhmm, does it only happen in Firefox?

Did you recently change the default font in Extras --> Properties --> content ?

(or similar words)

I think it is just the site that can't render the foreign Icelandic characters in the Sigur Rós song.

If I go to the same page as you, I have the same issue.

 

If the text is fine on this page, then I'm sure you are ok :)

I don't know. Because like zzz pointed out, the same letters work on another page. :shrug:

No, I just checked. Same problem on IE.

And I'm not computer savvy so I don't change any settings or anything. :uhoh:

It is fine on that page.

But this has also happened to me on other sites, like Coldplay.com. . . .:uhoh2:

Oh..ok...that is indeed extremely weird.

If you happen to run into another example, let us know and I 'll have a look

Ok, I will.

 

I think the problems with Coldplay.com (which were mainly in the Oracle section) stopped when the responses came up in a little bubble rather than loading a new page. Which is weird. :shrug:

Well, it sounds relatively okay on your end then :/

Go to character encoding and change it to Unicode or something.

  • Author

How do I get to character encoding? D:

 

And I saw it again, this time with French letters being the problem. ;__;

Which browser do you use?

 

In the new Firefox, you go: Firefox -> Web Developer -> Character Encoding

  • Author

I found it via View -> Character Encoding

 

It was on "Western" and then some numbers after it, so I switched it to "Unicode"

 

Still no difference. :\

Oh, that's weird. :S Were there more variations of Unicode? Perhaps try all of them?

  • Author

Just tried the other unicode and got this :|
