Make sure that both your PHP and your header files are the same encoding. Preferably UTF-8.

Answer 2

+1 A:

ok I don't know for what you need meta description? it is not useful. Anyway I recommend use UTF8. file have to be saved as utf8 and meta:

<meta http-equiv='content-Type' content='text/html; charset=UTF-8'/>

Answer 3

A:

I agree. Use:

<meta http-equiv="content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

With double quotes and a space before /> (I know I'm picky, but that's as far as I know the standard way to do it.)

One upside with using UTF-8 is that you almost never have to replace special characters, like the Swedish letter å, with HTML entites (in the case of å, å).

Also, I disagree with the comment above that meta descriptions aren't useful. On the contrary, I find meta descriptions very useful, mainly because they appear often enough in results from google searches.

Answer 4

+1 A:

Did you try using plain arabic characters instead of using a function e.g meta name="description" content="بيسب"

probably the problem is in your function itself not encoding.
