marathi language not shown properly in browser
In my html document, I have my html as:
<html>
<head><title>title</title></head>
<body> <div>विजय कदम</div> </body>
</html>
I am getting output as:
विजय कदम
Any idea? what do I need to specify?
Answer
- Save your file in UTF-8 encoding
- Add meta tag to the html to support UTF-8
- Make sure your server supports UTF-8 encoding, an example for Apache.
How to change the page encoding to UTF-8:
Add the following tag to the HTML:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
Or the HTML5 equivalent:
<meta charset="utf-8" />
