I see some "weird characters" in the source of my multilingual pages...... What does it mean?
The code reflected behind the page under file menu "View Page Source? is correct. Symbols such as "?é? ", "?", "&" is some of the HTML ?hyper-text-markup language? which is used universally to tell the many different programs reading it that there is to be placed the accent over an e - "é" or the correct Asian character required where you see the many symbols of > "?". These codes all are translated back to be read correctly when pulled into the appropriate search engine program. There are no mistakes in the typing whatsoever. The programs we use automatically change the typing into the actual type which the viewer will see in their browser window..
We do not type it incorrectly. Rather it is translated after typing in that language to be into a universally accepted language for all the various search engines to be able to interpret. All words will appear correctly when viewed in a search with that language.
