£ sign not ? mark

Hello group,

I am using ("Microsoft.XMLHTTP") to grab content from a site and display it
on my site, the issue I have and have had for weeks now is that on the
original page the sign "£" exists and when I get it to my site it is
displayed as a "?".

If I find the ASC code for the ? and replace on that it still does not work
:-(((

I have tryed all the usual method of fixing this with no success...

anybody had this issue or know where I might start to look to fix it ???

Regards
Graham Mattingley

Have you tried replacing it with "£" before displaying it?

Hi,

Why dont you just replace the symbol with £

This should do the trick.
