1. What the _Browser_ thinks about encoding of your page. In menu View > Encoding > what encoding is auto-selected there. 2. In Page Info dialog of Firefox (in Tools menu or in context menu > Page Info ) what is Encoding, Content Type, and what META tags are mentioned (does it include Content-Type tag) (disclaimer: I have a localized version of FF, so the above names are translated ones). 3. Save both pages as HTML (choose "HTML only" format when saving), and compare their text. Is there any difference? 4. Well, £ (notice the trailing ';'), or better £ should display the pound sign irregardless of what encoding the browser thinks that your page uses. Use the &#..; notation if generic xml processing is involved (the £ entity is defined for (X)HTML only).
