Hey all, a potentially dumb question about writing into an HTML file. I have code that does that, and the output often contains things like currency symbols, quotation marks, etc.

Locally, everything works just fine, but on PA the euro sign becomes €, pound becomes £, “ becomes “, and so on. What could be the reason here?

Thanks!

You have a difference in the encodings that you're using to produce your text. On your local machine, all the encodings were presumably accidentally the same. Here's a guide to what you need to understand the issue so you can fix it.
