Hi all,  
yesterday I put online my very first web site, mainly based on ideas found through this site.

[http://romut.free.fr](http://romut.free.fr/)

And as you may know, us, French people, use all the time some special chars like “èéàç€ùëïü…”.

Check the “news” page of my site, you will see there is none of our so loved special chars…And I don’t know why…so this thread.

The “news” control is based on :  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/multiple\_dynamictext.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/forum/../developer/mx/multiple_dynamictext.htm)

The control is DynamicText and I embbed :  
Uppercase  
Lowercase  
Numerals  
Punctuation  
Basic Latin  
Latin I

So why can’t I display my “è…” ?

Thanks for your help
