regarding the database collation & charset

[Lautaro]

I'm having problems with a lot of ASCII characters on my forum showing in HTML code, for example % showing like this &-#-3-7-; (ignore the '-', otherwise it will show the percentage symbol).

does the charset / collation of my forum's database has anything to do with this ??

Database Charset: latin1
Database Collation: latin1_swedish_ci

thank you.

What do you have set in Language Manager > find your language > Langue Code and HTML Character Set?

[Lautaro]

sorry I can't find that specific location .. find your language ? or do you mean search in phrases ?
