Dreamweaver, Translations and Weird Symbols.

Before I go searching the net for an answer, figured I'd post here. I have a few template landers that I've created.
I have an issue where I'll create copy and translations, and when I view in dreamweaver there's no problem.
Then when I take the file and upload to my server the text displays with a bunch of weird symbols. Are these symbols because I have the wrong font installed on the machine I'm viewing with? Or are these symbols seen by everyone?

Any ideas?

What characters are not displaying? I'm assuming whatever language you're translating to has accented characters, etc. If so, this should cover it: http://www.javascripter.net/faq/accentedcharacters.htm

Use HTML Entity for html/php/whatever, Hex if you need to display them in JS.

I had a similar problem and adding <meta charset="UTF-8"> to the head section fixed it.
