Unicode/UTF-8 problems with CSS in Frontpage 2003

I've just had a really interesting experience...

I tried saving one page in my site as Unicode. It contained only english
text with one greek Unicode string. The server displayed all normal text in
the page as traditional chinese, but all urls and embedded links were in
western european format. I have screenshots to show the problem.

I can confirm that it's not just my browser encoding, because I didn't even
look at the published site (although I previewed the page in FP), instead I
got a call from a customer who asked me what the reason for the chinese site
was!

I tried re-saving the page as UTF-8, and hey presto! all the style sheet
info was missing from that page (no backgrounds, buttons, text formatting,
text colours), but the unicode string was displayed properly.

I'm a bit rusty on style sheets and character set mapping in style sheets,
can anyone offer a suggestion on how I can display the page more-or-less
correctly using one unicode char string?

FYI, I'm using the "Breeze" style sheet for the whole site. When I publish
using Unicode or UTF8, the rest of the site is unaffected (even though pages
were published after the change to the one page in question), but this one
page goes bananas.

Any ideas or suggestions will be most welcome!
