I have found several forms with this question but they are at least 5 years old and the answers did not work for today.
I am having an issue with these chras that show up, mainly in Explorer or Safari but not firefox. Any ideas how to fix them?

Not sure if its a “database issue” or a “chars” issue.
The server is not sending the charset in the
Content-Type
header and the HTML meta fallback is broken:Note the invalid curly quotes instead of straight quotes.
That means there’s no valid declaration for what encoding the page is in and hence the browser takes a guess. Some guess wrong.
See UTF-8 all the way through.
