Displaying degree symbol on webpage

问题

I have a program which extracts GPS coordinates from metadata and imports the results onto a database. I then display the data using PHP on a webpage.

My problem - I've recently created a new template but for whatever reason, it is no longer showing the degrees symbol '°' but a '�'.

I just find it strange that it works with one template, but not the other?

I've tried changing fonts, but had no luck

回答1:

See DEGREE CHARACTER.

Specifically, HTML Entity: °.

Check that you have the proper docstring and character encoding in both templates to make sure they are correct.

回答2:

You can use:

utf8_encode('YOUR TEXT');

utf8_encode converts the string data from the ISO-8859-1 encoding to UTF-8.

回答3:

1. Save your PHP file with UTF-8 encoding.
2. Serve your PHP file with charset=UTF-8.
3. Add a META-tag in your HTML with charset=UTF-8.

This will solve (almost) all of your unicode character problems.

回答4:

When you input or pull the data from you database, use htmlentities()

you can find a good guide on this function a here http://php.net/manual/en/function.htmlentities.php
