Hello all,

 

I run a site that contains courses in Esperanto. If you're not aware, Esperanto is an auxiliary language created in the late 1800's and the most widely used constructed language today. Anyway, I need the website to automatically tell my users' browsers to switch to Unicode or some characters don't display correctly - but I'm not quite sure how to do this.

 

I've Googled around and the general consensus is that it's a setting controlled by the host and sent in the page headers to the browser. Attempts at using the <meta> tag have been unsuccessful. So, does anyone know about how I can go about enabling this? Site-wide would be ideal as I have a lot of pages to update otherwise.

 

Thanks in advance, and I hope I don't sound too ignorant about all this.

This has always worked for me. Put it right under the <head> tag.
