strange symbols on website - Post ID...
I have set up a website using Coffeecup html editor. I am a newbie at this.
Everything is fine except that on my website, where the '£' signs should be against the price, there are
either question marks, or tiny boxes in their place.
In the code editor and visual editor, the £ signs are fine, but on the preview and on the actual website, they've been replaced with these little symbols.
Can anybody help with guidance? Have you come across this before?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
The website concerned is www.instant-traffic-pump.co.uk/main1.html
Thank you
Kevin

Try replacing the pound symbol with £ in the code editor view.
Also don't switch between the code editor and the visual editor as it will muck up your code. Choose one and stick with it.

I know you believe you understand what you think I said...but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not exactly what I meant.
This web site is really helpful for the codes for all sorts of symbols:

Also change this
to this
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
to this
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
Many thanks to tassietiger and cary for their help with html code. My website is looking complete now.
