On some pages I cut-and-pasted text from elsewhere, but I also got the problem on text I typed directly into Wherigo\\kit. For example. I typed the single line "Well done!" (without the quote marks) as the response to a correct multi-option question. This renders OK under Android but as "Well done?" on at least three different iPhones. Double spaces after periods give space?

I've recently built and published my first Geocache Wherigo using Ranger Fox Wherigo\\kit. Brilliant package and results! But I have encountered the following issue that I can't see any reference to on this Forum. My pages all display perfectly on an Android phone, but an iPhone turns almost all punctuation marks (commas, apostrophies, quote marks, etc.) into question marks. Is there a work-around for this please. I am running RF under Windows 10 and Firefox 57.

Sorry - Firefox!!!!

On Foxpro for Windows, I found that opening the Configuration GME page (settings wheel bottom left)and clicking on Defaults solved the problem permanently. Thank you to all respondents for your helpful inputs.

I have the same problem (Foxpro). The thumbnail sits right on top of the zoom controls making the mapping function useless at the moment. How to get rid of it please?
Unwanted question marks
in Wherigo

Update.
1) Ranger Fox was kind enough to download my Wherigo\\Kit created cartridge and run it on an iPhone at his location. He saw no stray question marks. I ran the exact same cartridge here in the UK on a UK iPhone and the unwanted question marks are still there. So do UK and US iPhones handle certain characters (commas, exclamation marks, etc.) differently?
2) RF was also kind enough to send me a copy of my cartridge which he had exported by a different method. This works perfectly on a UK iPhone.
3) The problem seems to be unsupported characters introduced by cutting and pasting text from Word and/or web pages. This can almost certainly be overcome by creating a new file using only text typed directly into Wherigo\\kit.
