Problem In German Charcters

Hi I am facing a problem in on frontend side

one of the model attribute value is like this

texterin-f�r-diverse-magazine

while in admin side its working good

I have neither use any conversion on admin but why this problem

Please suggest a good tutorial for it

actual value is

texterin-für-diverse-magazine

Set the character set to utf-8 for YII (in main.php) / your html template (meta tag) / database tables and your problem will go away.
