Question : Special character not showing when using AJAX

Hi All,

I'm using Ajax to load content from a database into a DIV (so the page doesn't have to reshresh). The problem is, we have one particular issue. When you first click and the content is loaded, the letter é appears as a little sqaure, but once we refresh the page it appears as it should.

I'm assuming it's going something to do with the text being loaded isn't working because the content meta tag in the body of the page isn't being re-loaded. However, when you refresh the content is being loaded and put directly into the page rather than by using AJAX.

Is there anyway to resolve this issue?

Answer : Special character not showing when using AJAX

If you are calling the xmlHttp then,

Place-  "header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1');" in the file being called.

Good luck
