Can some please explain what I'm loosing when I use min instead of iso-lain-2? My pages happen to be in win1250 so I could write my own epchar.c.win1250 but why bother if min works right and there is no hidden catch I cann't think of right now? It will work correctly as long as you set the correct charset in the http headers and the clients knows this charset. I do. (Well, most of the time ;-)) Having all this html escapes like ü , make the page independed of the support for the charset of the client (of course the client needs to have at least to know how to display the corresponding charaters) The idea is Czech version should work for people with Czech browser/OS and the rest of the planet shouldn't use Czech pages anyway... ;-) So I take this epchar.c.min is just good enough for me.
