Rails - Jan 2006 - characters are not being correctly displayed

ok, here is my problem:
I started at my house a rails project, and I''m from argentina so I use 
spanish, and I uses characters like ''?'',
''?'', ''?'', ''?'',
''?''.
In my house, every was working ok.
Then I brought the application at office, and when I start the server, I 
just can''t see those characters, instead I see, what should I do to set
the locale to es-ES in the rails application? is there a way to set this 
in configuration.rb?
Thank you for your time

You need to make sure your character sets are configured correctly 
throughout - unfortunately there''s no single, central place to
configure
them at the moment.  When you say you use characters like ''?'',
''?'', ''?'',
''?'', and ''?'', which character set are they
stored in?

Yup.  That''s one.  Then there''s the view templates and the
database to
take care of, too.

I downloaded the Locale plugin... but once I understood how the Locale 
plugin works, I checked my view files, and I realized that my view files 
were wrong :S
Right now I''m asking in the company what the problem could be, in 
example, the ''?'' appears like ''?'', and the
browser displays them like
''?'', so I converted the file from ASCII to UTF8, and then I
all the
characters that were displaying like ''?'' became in
''?'', so it was ok,
but when I tried to see the page from the browser, I just saw the code, 
it was not interpreted by ruby, instead it send me the file like a text 
file
so I don''t have any idea of what''s going on, I asked to my
partners here
in the office but they don''t know anything about it
