I'm editing in HTML some files f my web page but when I uploaded the files they do not show the proper character.

Thanx!

I don't know what's going on. First, I used a template to set my page. Then, I edited it using Dreamweaver. The pages looked fine "locally" at the PC but when I uploaded to the site, the accents did not display, so I decided to edit the raw HTML files which is too slow
