Dreamvewer showing wrong text?

I've really been struggling with this bug that makes the font/text get all weird! Please help me!

Example: [removed: deemed to be spam - Moderator]

You can see where it says "kÃĪllor" but it's supposed to say "källor" which means sources in Swedish and I have defined what language I want <html lang="sv">.

    Well this is rather odd. Since it is appearing on both my laptop and my desktop pc...


    be sure that your file is really saved on utf-8 format... you can handle that using the menu file > page properties > encoding...

    what happen if you use the old &#228; or &auml; entities ? instead of directly typing the caracter

    Adding to B i r n o u 's reply, you have not set the language to "sv" as can be seen by:

    <html data-default-locale="en" data-env="production" data-locale="en" data-release="production-be2d9c4813a87359c6bd9ce7f820972a34f285cf" lang="en">

    This gives me the impression that the link was purely for spamming, hence it has been removed.
