 * If you enter something in a different language that uses UTF-8 to display, such
   as Arabic and you get nothing but ????? then you’re not UTF-8 compliant.
 * It seems something in your environment is NOT handling utf-8.
 * Have you tried different browsers?
 * Have you discussed the issue with your hosting provider?
