Dreamweaver question?

[beavereater]

I have a template that I want to use for a webpage. So I transfer all the text by copying it from my webpage and just pasting it into Dreamweaver...when I test it, the Japanese fonts come up no problem. I save it...close Dreamweaver, if I open it again (WITHOUT shutting down) it still works. BUT, if I open it the next (Having turned off the PC) it comes up in mangled letters...any ideas!?

Find the font and install it on your computer?

It is on my computer...I used it to make the first webpage...but when I cut and paste, it doesnt want to stay as the Japanese text.

what version of DW do you have and do you have the latest updates???

[beavereater]

yes...I have the latest version...bought it after buying Dreamweaver MX 2004 for Dummies...good book!! Anyway, I read that I could copy and paste documents or anything..but I seem to have a problem when it comes to copying and pasting Japanese. It works at first...but after a reboot...it gets all shitty!! No idea why...could it be HTML code set in the template???

Possible problem; You have to declare in the document what character set your using. I'm not too familiar with it but it's just a suggestion. If you view the source code for this page you will see the first line in the head tag declares the charset.

I think thats what it was!! I am not on my home PC right now so I cant check...but as soon as I get home, I will!! Thanks
