Displaying "traditional chinese" language text on web page

Question

I have a web page that should display the characters on web page in Chinese language, however currently it is not displaying so: Till now, I have implemented below written code, but still not able to fix:

in my header file:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

mySql table is being set to:

CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci

The table shows Chinese characters without any fail. What else needs to be done to show the text on the web page?

@KaushikMaheta, that should not matter. See this link http://www.w3.org/International/O-HTTP-charset#server — Eric, Oct 27 '15 at 07:03
@user4943236 , can you post the [tag:php] code to generate the [tag:HTML] content? Can you also post the http response headers used with file response? — Eric, Oct 27 '15 at 07:05

Your problem is not with chinese characters, but with UTF-8. Read this classic: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/279170/utf-8-all-the-way-through — Amarnasan, Oct 27 '15 at 07:22

This helped in solving my problem:

$mysqli->set_charset('utf8mb4');
