Dear Toasters,

I have a development site in mamp pro (xampp) where utf8 works perfectly. I am trying to setup the site at ******.nl, where uft8 is setup (utf8_unicode_ci) but the € sign is not showing correctly. I have altered, changed database from and to utf8_unicode_ci and tried other versions as well, sadly it did not work for me.  Is there anything I am missing here? cache was emptied etc, etc.

If i force the browser to see the site as utf8_unicode_ci then it works, naturally, but somehow the encoding does not load?

please help, it would be very much appreciated!

Dear Toasters!
Thank you very much for your replies!

My host has added 'AddDefaultCharset Off' to my htaccess and now the issue is solved.
