20,008 PointsInnerHTML hebrew string shown as question marks
Hello,
I changed an innerHTML of a Wordpress menu-toggle from English to Hebrew and now it appears as question marks. The reason for doing this with Js is a long story I prefer not to go into. My question is why there are question marks and is there as Js based solution?
That's the code I used:
let changeLinkText = document.querySelector(".mobile-menu");
changeLinkText.innerHTML = "תפריט";
I should note that the site itself includes Hebrew without any problem: Everything is RTLized and translated almost anywhere without problems.

20,008 PointsThe problem was with the encoding Notepad++ saved the file. I did the following and it was solved:
Encoding > Encode in UTF-8.
So, if it happens to you, make sure you work with an encoding suitable for any non English content you might have.
