[users@httpd] symbols are not showing up on my new upgraded system

I recently upgraded from an older version of Apache on
my Red hat 9 server to Red Has ES 5.  My older
webpages that were working correctly are currently
showing ? marks in place of symbols like the COPYRIGHT
Symbol ® , and I'm getting a question mark for the
DEGREES Symbol and some fraction symbols.

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks,

Bubba

Look at your AddDefaultCharset directive. Redhat changed the setting
from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 in some version. Changing it to the correct
charset or simply commenting it out will likely fix the problem.
