I have a website in Turkish .

"http://www.siirparki.com/fihrist.html" 

Turkish charactes ,such as ç, ı, ş, ö,ü etc sometimes show as ? or some strange charactes. I can see them perfectly well with internet explorer. Also the page is distorted, so the bacground image repeats. Again, there is no problem about this when I use IE. I get complaints from my visitors also.

Thanks for your concern in advance.

You're welcome

The server currently sends that page as Windows-1252, so you may want to change that encoding to ISO-8859-9 if that is how you saved the page.

It would probably be better to save the pages of your website in Unicode and re-upload the files.

Do you see the characters here?

You can check the encoding if you get missing or wrong characters.

In this case you need Western (Windows-1252) to get the correct text.

By changing character encoding to Türkçe- (ISI-8859-9) the Turkish characters became OK. Thanks so much for your help.
