I have a slight problem with strings sent from a PHP script to an object in world. Take this character for instance: ´
It displays fine in the HTML output from the script, and it displays fine if I paste it directly in to an LSL script, but I'm seeing it displayed like this when it's used in the string "Everybody´s":
Everybody´s
There are other examples that are worse, and I'm assuming it's something to do with not sending particular headers from PHP, but what? How can I get rid of this? I have no control over the characters that are sent as this is a feed from elsewhere.
Thanks for any and all help guys

That's a classic case of UTF-8 text misidentified as iso-8859-1, so if you're lucky all you need to do is force the charset to utf-8.

In PHP or LSL?

Probably before it gets to SL, fix up the content-type header.

Put this in to the PHP page before anything is echoed:
header('Content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
Job done. Cheers
