very small problem, but it's driving me nuts

would appreciate a solution...

the hispanic players in my league with an 'ñ' in their name shows up on all HTML reports as a 'c' for some reason, for example, Peña becomes Peca, Ordoñez becomes Ordocez, the names are fine in the game but on the box scores and other html it turns into a 'c'.

anyone know how to fix this?

anyone?

What browser are you using?

It's a character encoding problem. OotP doesn't set the character set through the meta tag; so, it uses whatever the browser is set to.

In IE, right-click, choose encoding and make sure it's set to Western Europe (ISO).

In Firefox, click on View in the menubar, choose Character Encoding and make sure it's set to Western (ISO-8859-1).
