I created a blog with Word Press, and i want to show in my static front page the last 5 posts.
Searching in this site I found a mini loop code, and it works, but the thing is:
I am brazilian and accents should work, but they not. So words like: "País" (Country) are appearing "PaÃs".
This problem happens just in Mini Loop. The Blog is showing accents correctly.
Someone can help me?

No one?! I really need fix this!
The blog i created is not a personal one, but for my job, so I need fix this urgently!
Is that word [País] coming from the database or is it hardcoded in your "miniloop"?
If the latter, you have saved the file with an encoding that is NOT utf-8.

The mini loop code insert the title of the posts in my home page, so i guess that the word come from database.
I've already tried to change the encoding, but it doesn't works...
Without a link it is difficult to detect where your problem is.
What is the encoding of the file/page where you display the latest 5?

utf-8.
the site is: http://www.jornaldovaletudo.com.br/
and the blog: http://www.jornaldovaletudo.com.br/blog
You'll see: in the index (at the right) the accents doesn't works, but in the blog, they do.
Nope. Your main site is NOT utf-8. It is iso-8859-1 (western) - that's why it is NOT displaying correctly text encoded with utf-8. WP's defulat encoding is UTF-8.
(this is from your main site's head section:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
You will have to make sure the two encodings are the same.
Beware that changing the encoding on old files/site will result in totally garbled code, which means you will have to re-write your text either on the main site or in the blog if you are going to change the encoding on any of them.
