Problem with globalization

[Xavier MT]

Hi, I have a site that has some text in spanish and it doesn't display well,
for example with a ñ it displays some weird boxes, can anyone help me or
point me to some help

[Steve C. Orr, MCSD]

Have you tried setting it to use unicode?
Here's more info on the subject:

Also, have you checked the Globalization section of the web.config?
Try changing it to something more like this:

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
<globalization
fileEncoding="iso-8859-1"
requestEncoding="iso-8859-1"
responseEncoding="iso-8859-1"
/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

I hope this helps,

Just one thing, I've tried some things but my problem is that my strings are
in a .js and it's when they are written page that it doesn't work.

BTW thanks for the help, I'll keep on trying...

You can always use HTML entities, for example ñ is &#241; or &ntilde;. You
need to make sure your page encoding is right and you're using font that has
the characters you're trying to display.
