I have a website, it contains html only, and there is a lot of cyrillic symbols. Browser is setting the UTF-8 encoding, instead of windows-1251, like it should be. So, english letters displays fine, but every cyrillic symbols is like ����
Here is my setup:
RHEL 6.3 (2.6.32-279.el6.x86_64)
Apache/2.2.15 (Unix)
Here is my .htaccess file:
Options +Includes
AddDefaultCharset WINDOWS-1251
First lines of the page:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Company name, etc</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=WINDOWS-1251">
Example page on pastebin or phpfiddle for those who don't have access to pastebin
So, charset is set everywhere, and if I mannualy change the encoding in the browser to windows-1251 - it displays just fine, but autodetect sets the utf-8, and I don't know why.
If it helps - site was hosted on Sun OS 5.10 before.
Thanks for any help.
I commented out the following line in
httpd.conf
, restarted httpd and everything displays correct now:
