Bug description: Query of MS-Word char causes ISO number to show up instead of actual character

Description:
------------
When certain MS-Word characters such as (’) are returned from a query in
MySQL and displayed to a webpage, you see ’ instead.

MS-Word parenthesis = ’
Standard ASCII paranthesis = '

Reproduce code:
---------------
//database connection params
include("db_conn.php");

//the database should have a MS-Word parenthesis in it (’)
$result = mysql_query("SELECT textvalue FROM anytable");
$fetch_result = mysql_fetch_object($result);

//display result to a webpage
echo $fetch_result->textvalue;





Expected result:
----------------
’

Actual result:
