Donator	In admin>skin localization it is set to UTF8 Whats weird is that if i use ÆØÅ in the site and not in the TPLs it works but when i put it in the TPLs it just becomes a ? Nevermind just had to save the actual file with that encoding

Donator	Thanks for all the info! But why doesnt this work in the language files? When i use "ÆØÅ" in the language files the layout gets all messed up in IE but looks fine in FF.

All TPL-files where you use national chars are also encoded to UTF-8 (without BOM) I would recommend that to you do not use Notepad for encoding. Get yourself NotePad++ or some other decent text editor. SED.by - создание сайтов, разработка плагинов и тем для Котонти
