Re: unicode issue in Perl CGI

1. You could try changing the character encoding of your browser. In
Firefox, View/Character Encoding.
2. Ensure that you have the relevant font installed on your computer
3. If that works, then you probably want to set the character encoding
of the page. Look in the CGI.pm module and you will see that you can set
the charset to be used. For example,  to set utf8:
    $q->charset('utf-8') ;
