[opencms-dev] encoding problem in exported pages

Check, if your web server transmits an encoding with the page as part of the response header.
You can use the web developer extension for firefox to do this.

If your webserver transmits a encoding then this encoding might be used by your browser.

If no encoding is set by your webserver (which is preferable) and if your html pages contain no meta tag that specifies the encoding (bad idea!) then the browser will try to guess which encoding is used.

Therefore: make sure that your pages contain a meta tag which specifies the (correct) encoding and that your static webserver doesn't send any encoding or does send the same encoding via HTTP.
