This morning I changed the date on my site, and ftp’d it into the server. When WHEN I opened the updated page in Firefox, all I acquired was gibberish — Chinese or Western characters, and a number of others. The WEB ADDRESS is www. protonfabrication. com, and here’s this strange part – it displays the right way when I’m directed there by the link on yet another page, like the particular portfolio page (www. protonfabrication. com/portfolio-page-1. htm). The particular link takes us to www. protonfabrication. com/index. htm certainly not www. protonfabrication. com whilst they’re the similar page. When WHEN I type www. protonfabrication. com into your search window, WHEN I get gibberish, although add " index chart. htm" and this works. The homepage displays as it should in Mozilla, and also doesn’t in Opera. Clearly, I’m new to the, and any help can be appreciated. Things worked very good until I adjusted the date for the homepage yesterday, and I do not know what I may have done. Any ideas
gives thanks,
Andrew
When you attempt to accessibility a root area (such as space. com), the browser actively seeks index. htm, index chart. html, home. htm, house. htm (default and also main also)..
Hence going www. protonfabrication. com/index. htm should be just as going www. protonfabrication. com
Involved in your problem, WHEN I viewed both internet. protonfabrication. com/index. htm and also www. protonfabrication. com which in turn yielded the similar result..
Might be try a tough refresh
" Hence going www. protonfabrication. com/index. htm should be just as going www. protonfabrication. com"
I know, which is why it is so baffling — one works to me, the other will not, and all I did was change that copyright date end of it of the site. I tried refreshing the page, without having luck. I also do’t realize why I’m having this matter in Firefox along with Opera, and certainly not in Mozilla and also IE (I just checked that). Almost every other ideas

Might you upload a image with the jibberish version
and this shows up:

Seek out:
* Content-type and also encoding
Within the:
* HTTP Headers (try LiveHeaders extention for Fox)
* HTML DOCUMENT < head>
Seems in my opinion this might always be an encoding situation, make sure you’re using something such as UTF-8 and declaring it!
The would not look for index. html or various other index files. The particular returns the list. html file if it is configured to complete so. It can just like easily be configured to come back /foo/bar. html if you are desired, for example using an. htaccess rewrite rule.
If the looked for anyone files, that would involve significant lag though multiple GET (or no less than HEAD) requests will be sent for various nonexistant internet pages until finally the right (say, main. htm or index. php) index chart file was determined.
straight_up, sorry, but I do not own any idea what discomfort! Here are the best few lines of code on the homepage:
<! DOCTYPE HTML DOCUMENT PUBLIC " -//W3C//DTD HTML DOCUMENT 4. 0 Transitional//EN"
" http: //www. w3. org/TR/REC-html40/loose. dtd" >
< html>
< head>
< title> Proton Fabrication index< /title>
WHEN I realize html FOUR. 0 is dated – but it worked fine until finally yesterday. I’m no developer, so I’m from a little over this head here. The design was a result of reading HTML with regard to Dummies (I’ll say that it! ), and also a couple questions MY SPOUSE AND I asked here last October.
I see UTF-8 can be an option in your character encoding drop-down palate, but I have no idea of what it means to use that within the code and lay claim it. Can you guide me out along with that And why would concern show up currently The page did wonders fine until the other day, when I changed a main digit from a 5 to a 6. The speed reading helps you thing I do was upgrade my own FTP program coming from smartFTP v. A SINGLE. 5 to v. 3. 0, but I don’t think that matters. Can it
Andrew
adrummond,
I’m almost as puzzled as you are as to exactly why this would appear now.
A SINGLE. I see no issue, myself, which doesn’t help.
3. Try UTF-8.
3 OR MORE. I’m not convinced about FTP, but it’s possible, I suppose, your FTP client could have been to blame. But I sort of doubt it.
A header is definitely information sent from your server (website) for the browser. It is just not displayed, and represents the document getting sent, for example declaring it being HTML encoded by using UTF-8, and setting it to reach its expiration date from cache in two days.
Encoding will be the way the 1’s and 0’s describe the actual letters, numbers, and so on. in your web site. UTF-8 is considered the most effective character set to use, as it includes many different characters. Another prevalent encoding scheme is definitely ASCII, which actually shares attractive same characters with UTF-8.
Right me if I’m wrong, someone, but I believe UTF-8 is often known as 8-bit Unicode.
Anyhow, hopefully you could see that if your browser thinks your current page is encoded a proven way, and it’s actually not, it may turn out misinterpreting those 1s along with 0s to present something completely inappropriate.
Approaches to declare the encoding is the headers, as stated, and in this HTML. If WHEN I were you, I’d just be worried about in the CODE itself: Add one such lines to the actual < head> and see what happens. (If that doesn’t remedy a repair, swap in other. )
< meta http-equiv=" Content-Type" content=" text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> < meta http-equiv=" Content-Type" content=" text/html; charset=utf-8" />
< meta http-equiv=" Content-Type" content=" text/html; charset=utf-8" />
That fixed this – thanks a whole lot. It isn’t something I’d have ever figured out on my own!
Andrew
You are correct, but it has not been just of you rate his post negative as a result.
I’d never rated anybody negative before and this
