Hi,

Sorry if this has been asked before, and apologise if this is the
wrong NG.

I am using PHP 5.0.5 and Apache 2.0.54 in a Win2k environment.

Lately I have been playng with RSS feeds. I managed to get "lastRSS"
which is a simple RSS parser.

When I tried to setup an RSS feed to eBay to get custom searches
straight to my desktop I noticed that the UK Pound sterling symbol is
shown preceded by a Latin capital A with circumflex. (An 'A' wearning
a hat).

I checked the RSS feed and the extra char is not there.

So, I am unsure how to progress to sort this out. I don't know if PHP
or apache is the problem. I can only find one other comment on Google
where someone is having the same problem. But still no answer.

I checked the changelogs for the lastest versions of PHP and Apache
and there is no mention of this bug.

Is it just me?


Any clues will be much appreciated.

Kind regards

Nick Thomas
