Unicode characters error when save

V

In Visual Studio 2005...

When I'm saving an HTML file it gives me this message:

"Some Unicode characters in this file could not be saved in the current
codepage. Do you want to resave this file as Unicode in order to maintain
your data?
Yes No Save With Other Encoding Cancel"

Any ideas what this means and how I should handle it?

Thanks!

That means you have non English characters in your code. And they must be
saved as Unicode if you want them to show up.

Usually it happens if you copied code from some webpage. If you positive
that there should not be any non-English characters then just say "No".

Found this error can be caused by quotes

Got the same error after copying and pasting some text into an HTML page that contained those special left and right quotation marks, replaced them with “ and ” and all was OK.
