I migrated my Wordpress account from another server to Dreamhost successfully... or so I thought. Now some of my posts on Wordpress come up with ??? in place of special characters!

Is this an inevitable consequence of migration? When I view the mySQL database using phpMyAdmin everything looks normal.

my site is: http://williamchong.com - here's a particularly bad example...

Within the head section you have:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

Change 'UTF-8' to 'ISO-8859-1'
