Subject:  FRench characters not displayed correctly 

Hi all.

We have taken over a site and a problem we have is that French special
characters aren't displaying correctly, they are displaying a weird square
block.

I have checked the content type and it's as follows: 

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" >

I also notice that the "charset=iso-8859-1" is missing in the above meta
tag, could this be affecting the characters?

I have seen that there is no DOCTYPE declaration, could this be the problem
if this is omitted?

If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

TIA.

Angelo

I have also found that we can do this: 

<html lang="fr">

But I am interested in finding out if the doctype declaration is a
contributing factor.

Thanks
Angelo
