Thai Letters Not Showing Properly on AWS Landers (14)

Thai Letters Not Showing Properly on AWS Landers

Hi there,

So basically I wanted to run some camps in TH, had the landers ripped and fixed up, looks all good when the html files are opened raw on my PC.

But once I upload on my S3 buckets and test the links, the letters show up as random symbols like $!&(^!($*&@!(#*

Anyone had this problem and know a way to get around this? Tried googling this but nothing really came up.

Help would be much appreciated!

Might be a font missing that wasn’t downloaded or referenced correctly

There weren't any external font files or references in the original ripped landers, and it shows up properly when opened raw on my PC.

Could it be an issue with AWS itself and that they can't support certain languages?

When you say raw, do you mean looking at the code, or opening the .html file in your browser

Opening the html file in my browser

Weird! @s3ks3k can you upload the lander to pastebin and drop the link in here? I can take a look (please don't PM - I've given up on keeping up with those).

Lander appears fine in S3!

Did you save the file as UTF-8?

Wait so I should save the file as a .txt not a .html? Bit confused as the .html doesn't have the UTF-8 extension (I'm using sublime text btw)

Bump! @vortex just wondering if you've managed to figure this out, thanks!

I recall someone having a similar issue before. Did you try changing the html lang attribute in the code? Meta charset is the tag where you'd put the UTF-8.

This will most probably be the issue.

That was the issue, managed to fix it by adding that in the code!

Thanks

Apologies for the late reply! But great to see @thedudeabides has resolved this!

I simply saved the file as .txt with the correct encoding, then edited the filename to the .html extension.

But thedudeabides' solution is better!
