in reply to Encoding of web page differs on different servers

If cat shows the correctly while the browser does not, the difference is mostly like a wrong header on one of the servers.

Try 

wget -S $url

[download]

For both servers and compare the Content-Type headers.

I'd also recommend installing an UTF-8 locale, because perl sometimes does funny things without it. (I never found out what exactly went wrong, but with a working locale I had much less headache).

    Hi Moritz.

    declared encoding is the same in both cases.

    you wrote I'd also recommend installing an UTF-8 locale, because perl sometimes does funny things without it. (I never found out what exactly went wrong, but with a working locale I had much less headache).

    Exactly that is my feeling, too
