    What do I need to add into the source code to make the diacritics characters display correctly?

     

    Thanks

    That is odd, I just tried your form source code, an the special characters shows up:

    Please share the URL of the page where you have embedded the source code, so we can check further.

    OK - So I worked out the problem.  I was saving my local html/php as ANSI format and not as the UTF-8.

     

    Soon as I did that it worked absolutely fine.

     

    Thanks
