Research direction
Compare the generated page with example/sample_new_features.cpp and the GitHub-rendered source to confirm the encoding mismatch. Trace the server or generation step that copies the example into the web page, then determine whether the relevant files should be read as ISO-8859-1 or converted to UTF-8. Done means the generated page displays the sample correctly without broken characters.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
In this page the output is broken because the source code file uses ISO-8859-1 but is assumed to be UTF-8 when copying to the web page. Github guesses the correct encoding so it displays properly
The server must be fixed to read the file in the correct encoding, or just convert all files to UTF-8. I think the latter is the best solution
