Hello everyone, I have a problem regarding special character in internet explorer 7 and above. i typed ñ but the output is a black diamond(♦). But if i typed it in ie 6, i got it correctly. Confused any suggestion? thanks

"˜" will work as long as you define the correct doctype eg: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> and charset:
