Hey!
My first post here, and I hope someone has the solution :)
I'm using the 'phpbb recent topics' to grab latest posts from a phpbb-forum on the same server.
The problem is that this is a Swedish site and the ÅÄÖ and åäö will not show correctly.
The meta I'm using on my WP is UTF-8, and same with the phpbb.
The site can be viewed @ http://www.helsingborgsfk.se, and the widget is placed in the sidebar.
I did try to add:
mysql_query( "SET CHARACTER SET utf8");
mysql_query( "SET NAMES utf8");
but no luck there.
