    Default Weird ? Character showing in text ?

    Hi

    I have this very strange problem on my ZenCart site that is bugging the hell out of me. Basically when you enter any text to a page via the WYSIWYG editor, the resulting page has a number of question mark characters which seem to be at the end of every sentence, but also instead of a point in unordered lists?

    Here is a screen shot:


    Links to the pages:
    u:monster
    p:monster

    My guess is that the editor is actually throwing these in somehow?

    Any ideas?

    In the heading in the table, click on these symbols <> and use this below:
    <ul>
    <li>blah blah</li>
    <li>blah blah</li>
    </ul>

    Hi, thanks.

    Yes I have found that by typing in raw code get around the issue. But that's not really going to impress my client. They are less likely to want to learn even basic HTML. Is there not a work around for this?

    139h too. It's a Monster Template, so maybe it's that. I'll get on to them

    Oh MY... The old Monster Template doing her best...
    Take time and switch back to the classic template and do a test product and see if you get the same results...
    If perfect then you track the problem through the template you purchased...

    another reason such codes might show up after saving html is page encoding doesn't match the database table type.

    Like haredo said it has everything to do with the template you are using and not Zen Cart.
