I'm gettign this strange character instead of an apostrophe on a page that's powered by Wordpress, but only in Internet Explorer. Other browsers (chrome, firefox) display as the actual apostrophe.
’
Can somebody tell me what the problem is?
Here's the instance in question: http://cure.org/about/management-team/
You'll see under Dale Brantner, 4th staff member from the top, there in the first paragraph of his bio the word organization's and that is the instance which in IE I'm getting the above symbol instead of an apostrophe.
I have tried both with the apostrophy character, and with the HTML character entity ' but both seem to yield this strange character string. Interestingly, I have noticed it on other wordpress powered blogs from time to time.
Also of note, this page is generated by a custom use of the links function in wordpress.
There's a known issue, you should use ' instead of '

What you are quoting (’) almost always is due to an encoding problem, but I get ' in both IE 7 and 8.
This looks like an encoding error. Check that the character encoding settings are the same in both browsers.
It's best to use ' for apostrophes. It's weird, but the same will happen on YouTube when you input an apostrophe...sometimes. Just happened to me earlier when I posted a comment. When I searched ' on Google, it turns out it just translates to an apostrophe. So, in summary, use '.
Try replacing the apostrophe with ' if it's still shows up weird it probably a corrupt font.
