  Masterpage:

  
  <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="head" runat="server">
  </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>

  I added the contentplaceholder after you had suggested.

  The page:

  <%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/PublicMaster.master" AutoEventWireup="false"
  CodeFile="contact.aspx.vb" Inherits="contact" Title="Contact us" %>

  <%@ Register Assembly="AjaxControlToolkit" Namespace="AjaxControlToolkit" TagPrefix="cc1" %>
  <asp:Content ID="contenthead" ContentPlaceHolderID="head" runat="Server">
  <meta http-equiv="content-language" content="en, de" />
  </asp:Content>

  I have added the asp:Content after your suggestion.

  Still the page doesn't work in german.

  The page is available in the following link:

  myclientssite.recruitmentexchange.com/contact.aspx

  You can see that the menu items that are in Masterpage are displaying German characters. But in the content page, below corporate office, the characters are not recognised.

  Think I am taking lots of your time. Thanks for supporting.

  I found the problem. In my web.config, based on some blog, I had included the following:

      <globalization enableClientBasedCulture="true" culture="de-DE" uiCulture="de-DE" requestEncoding="utf-8" responseEncoding="utf-8" fileEncoding="utf-8"/>

  Today I faced another issue where by datetime was displayed in DD-MM-YYYY format. So I tweeked my web.config globalization.

  I found that culture=""de-DE" was creating the datetime issue.

  After that I removed:

  requestEncoding="utf-8" responseEncoding="utf-8" fileEncoding="utf-8"

  from the globalization tag & woohooo - I started getting proper German character in my website.

  Just wanted to post this here so that someone else with the same issue will not have to break their heads :)

  Thanks FightAsABull for your help.

  Happy coding.
