found that odd question mark icons in the display of MySQL database content through PHP was due to the http encoding setting in the HTML header of the page:
Standard entry was:
meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /
changed to:
meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /
and, as if by magic...the icons now display correctly (e.g. em dash characters).
