"’" showing on page instead of " ' "

encoding, mojibake, utf-8

Solution

Ensure the browser and editor are using UTF-8 encoding instead of ISO-8859-1/Windows-1252.

Or use `’`.

Problem

`’` is showing on my page instead of `'`. I have the `Content-Type` set to `UTF-8` in both my `<head>` tag and my HTTP headers: ``` <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> ``` In addition, my browser is set to `Unicode (UTF-8)`: So what's the problem, and how can I fix it?
