Chinese law mandates use of GB-18030, not UTF-8. The two are losslessly and unambiguously convertable, but their bit encodings are different. They are accustomed to dealing with UTF-8 from other parts of the world, but might prefer to generate local pages in compliance with the law. R Horn rjh...@alum.mit.edu
