Apostrophe doesn’t render

[BKeyes]

Sorry if this has been covered before, but a search on this topic yielded hundreds of posts written by a user named apostrophe ;)

I’m having difficulty getting an apostrophe in text to render correctly. Instead, in its place I get ’

You can see an example of it here: http://www.union-psce.edu/prospective/a … /staff.php

Any help is much appreciated – TIA.

replace the apostrophe in your html with &_ #39;

If you make sure the page has UTF-8 encoding, you shouldn’t have to worry about that kind of thing.

I also use ’ instead of the example above.

Thanks — I went in to the html and saw that it had a string of strange characters where the apostrophe was supposed be. I replaced those with an apostrophe and that seems to have done the trick. Apparently there was a bit of a hiccup when composing in the WYSIWYG editor.

Thanks again —

Had the same problem. TheDoc is right. It can happen if you copy the text from a MS Word document (which uses different encoding) into the editor you use.
