Hi Perl Monks, I have ran into this issue and according to past threads, I am supposed to tell Perl to output in UTF-8. I added the following to my code: 
open(OUT,">out.html") || die("Cannot Open File");
binmode(OUT, ":utf8");

The error has gone away but there are weird characters that are still showing up like this when I print it out:
 Upromise – The way to save for college
and
 Client Server Security for Your Small Business –
I am using SOAP::Lite to obtain html links and the symbols do not seem to get encoded/decoded correctly when I obtain them. The code I use to obtain them is something like this:

Update: I updated the code I used to obtain the information. 
open(OUT,">out.html") || die("Cannot Open File");
binmode(OUT, ":utf8");
my $service = SOAP::Lite->service('http://www.url.com/file.wsdl');
my $arguments = "my_id";
my $result = $service->search($my_arguments);
my $url = $link->{linkCodeHTML};
print OUT $url . "<br>";

I'm not exactly sure what it is supposed to like since it looks like that when I print it out. I assume they are trademarks of some sort.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

> Thanks,

Perl newb
