Hello everyone,
I am forwarding a question from my Technology Assistant. Any ideas to
help us out?

I'm having a problem with Russian characters. We're transitioning from
a php-based website to a ColdFusion one. The old website displays the
characters correctly:
http://www.auburn.edu/forlang/lab/resources/viewer.php?type=audio&book=nachalo
The new website does not:
http://media.cla.auburn.edu/forlang/multimediacenter/resources/russian.cfm
When pasted into Dreamweaver, the characters appear correctly, but not
when viewed in a browser from the server. I have tried to set the
character encoding in the meta tag to the same as on the old website,
but the browser still detects the page as UTF-8. Does anyone know why
the page is detected as UTF-8 when I specify Windows-1251 for the
charset in the meta tag?
If that's not the problem, does anyone have any other ideas as to how I
might solve this problem?
Thanks,
Russell Pierce
