I'm sure everyone has that problem. I've learned to read the question mark
as an apostrophe since it's been so long like this :)

0x92 is that capital AE combo character thingie. Remember that 0x7F is 127
decimal. Regular ASCII is defined from character 0 to 127 (0x92 = 146
decimal). The extended ASCII table is 128-255. I don't know why you'd be
seeing 0x92 in any regular HTML page.. unless it's another one of those
DOS to UNIX conversion issues. I don't recall a problem offhand when writing
my own pages (on ext2), then again I prolly just haven't looked.

The apostrophe is either 0x27 (39 decimal) or 0x60 (96 decimal).

NOTE TO ALL:

' = apostrophe
" = quotation mark

there's no such thing as a single or double quote... just the two above :)
I know that in computer languages we use both as quotes at times, but they
do have actual names :P
