some encoding issues (i guess)

well, this is the story. I am from Croatia (SE Europe) and by default i use ISO-8859-2 encoding. All is set and works properly. Yet, some users post and instead a character from that specific charset i get a ? or a square, eventhough those users claim it's all looking ok. Plus, when i quote someone with central european characters, the quote looks just like i described (some letters are ? and the square).

What can be the problem here? Are the users using a different encoding perhaps? if so, how to force iso-8859-2 on them?

(sounds brutal ;) )

That usually indicates that your installation of Windows does not have the right fonts installed.

Tahoma font? I mean...come on :D

No.  Other languages may, in many cases, need other fonts to be installed such as "Ming Liu", etc....  check your control panel, under "Regional Settings", I think.

still, i fail to understand how could this resolve the issue. All is fine except for some users and quotes which contain specific characters.
