weird characters when printing in textarea

Navigation
2

I can not print the characters correctly. if I write anything inside the html, the characters are normal.   <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

  • If I write a text with special characters in javascript and have it printed in a textarea: "Indication" , this ends up returning in textarea Indicação 

    document.getElementById('textarea').value = "Indicação";

Is there any way to start this right? the only way to start "right" is by doing what the guy on this blog said? link

John, the problem is that the charsets of your files are incompatible.

I do not know the editor you are using, but to avoid problems, you should save all files with the same charset, preferably UTF-8.

And to ensure compatibility with the browser, I still use the <meta charset="utf-8" /> tag shortly after <head> in my html file.

You can use Notepad ++ [ link to check the charset of your files and even convert. ("Format" menu).
