I've been writing a number of Web pages on my Windows XP box using the jEdit editor and checking them locally in Firefox. These pages contain Japanese characters and English, and both look OK on my local computer (loaded as file://yadayada).
But when I upload these pages to a folder on my Web site (hosted by a 3rd party), the Japanese looks crap. Specifically, the page displays lots of 'a'-with-tilde characters, and tiny numbers in squares. Some site showed examples of what badly encoded French would look like if UTF-8 was expected but ISO-8859-1 was found, and it looks like that (I typed some French to verify this). Smells like an encoding problem, but all my settings/options/etc in jEdit say that this file is encoded in UTF-8.
Here's the start of my HTML page. Are there any glaringly obvious mistakes?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD xhtml 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="ja"> <head> <title>Japanese particles</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" /> <meta http-equiv="content-language" content="ja"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css"/> </head> <body> ... </body>
I'm attaching the file in question.
