Pound sign transforms into a Question mark in the UK also

[minerva]

question marks instead of pounds !
 Harold Wilson said the pound in your pocket is worth more !
Is this only happening because the Euro is going down the drain!!


Question marks now print out as smilies with clubs !

it has a lot to do with the Database and what it understand...
whats called a Character Set, each set are unique to the Country for example ISO-8859-1 would locate to en_GB
the newer  UTF-8 Format Need different Inputs to get the same result.
i will see if i can load up the new UTF-8 Format... which the database is now..

don't Panic Capt Mannering.. 

see what happens now when you press the Pound sign.. €
