I want to ask you, as a beginner, what basic settings for the document encoding are you doing with UTF-8?
An example how I do it below and am asking about repair if something is wrong. I want to rely on all devices in different browsers with different user settings will render the text as it should, so I will do the following:
- I use Notepad ++ , first in the Format tab choose "change the encoding to UTF-8 (if its already not)";
- Because I use
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">mostly or .<!DOCTYPE html>, then select the correct attribute for the meta tag in the head, so either<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>, respectively .<meta charset="UTF-8" />
I'm concerned mainly about the Czech characters
Am I right or isn´t it that simple if I expect cooperation between HTML, PHP or JS, maybe MySQL? Thank you for your answers and sorry for incomplete English.
If you read text from a Database make sure that it is set to utf8 and that the columns are as well. Then you can use
SET NAMES UTF8to make sure the connection encoding is utf8 as well. Just make it your first query to the databse.
