When reading online British tabloids the text is full of question marks instead of ('). Why does this happen, do the Brits use a different Font table? Why does this happen?

    Which ones? It really shouldnt matter since the webby should state what encoding it is using.

    top gear looks fine to me! I assume you mean you are seeing "we?re" instead of "we're"??

    What browser are you using? Safari, Mozilla, and OmniWeb all display it fine on my Mac.
