can you see the weird little question mark in the square, in the product spec? (in ff, in IE its just an empty little square..)

i know NOTHING about character sets, so this prob looks obvious to someone, [B]but not me![/B]

if i dump the table and just paste here the specific record for that page, you can see that it’s all stored np in the db:

[INDENT]INSERT INTO `products` VALUES (132,’Alpha CD25C ‘,’CD25C High Efficiency Gas Combination Boiler’,’CDC boilers are the flagship combis in Alphas Next Generation range.
