Strange symbols being inserted before £

[bozboz]

Hi,

I am sure this is a character settings problem but one of my sites uses a £ symbol as a delimiter.

After uploading it all of the £ symbols in my php files are preceded by a "Â". Any £ symbols in html files are fine?

Anyone have any ideas?

Seems to be a problem to do with utf-8 and iso-8859-1.

When I try to edit the files using utf-8 all is ok.

When I edit the files using iso-8859-1 the £ are displayed as £
