Not just Cyrillic but all kinds of characters are causing problems, even question marks themselves are being displayed as “@p0”

Which page is this from? Looking at nilsas' from Bryne user profile and beer ratings | RateBeer.com and it looks to render those styles correctly?

I’m trying to find which page exactly he is referring too, but I found in the meantime that each page loading with a different time period selected with the SELECT TIME option have the characters bug.

Okay this particular scenario should be resolved now. Looks like quite a bit of the legacy site doesn’t respect UTF-8… I’ll have to go through and update the pages so it does.
