Problem solved, accidentally a€| somewhere while editing the index.php, I must have saved it encoded as UTF-8 with BOM (whatever this is). Obviously, Firefox chokes on that. Solution: always save your files without BOM.
So, and now I’m going to hunt down any XML-errors … when sending files as application/xhtml+xml, those browsers just become merciless …

I’m using WP 1.2.1, forgot to mention it, sorry.
@adsworth: I don’t think that this is the same problem a€“ in my case, not only the content from the database is encoded wrong, but the whole page a€“ which means also the static parts that aren’t fetched out of a database. Apart from that, I think the bug you mentioned would affect all browsers, not just Firefox alone a€“ which happens with my page and is definitely weird.

Yes, it’s all done with the index.php. It seems as the information normally sent with the header seems to get lost and Firefox returns to its default encoding (which means that if utf-8 is set as the browser’s default encoding, this probably won’t happen.)

Really? Even if you go to a single post, i. e. something like this: https://tapestry.xeophin.net/threads/2004/11/29/wiki-aventurica/ ?
If it doesn’t happen, that would be extremely odd a€|

Same problem here … interesting that searching in the forums doesn’t produce any results. I assumed that this might be a common question. But well. Help would be appreciated ??

great … ??

Yeah, but your comments are much more complete … I never looked at the code, just noted the common problem and searched the article on ALA …

Maybe that article from “A List Apart” is what you are looking for …

Yes. Yes. Yes. Thank you so much, that was exactly what I was looking for. The solution works like a charm. I guessed the solution was somewhere around there, but I was afraid I’d break something if I just commented stuff out without knowing its function …
Thanks!

Hmm … is there really no one who has an idea how to achieve this? Or at least is able to tell me how the SQL-query has to look like?
Without that, this kind of website is pretty much useless …

This is basically normal behaviour of HTML: unnecessary whitespace is removed. This is why you can structure your HTML-Files so beautifully and don’t have to write everything in one long line … so you’re doing nothing wrong here ??
A solution could be to add either
several times or repeatedly, I guess.
