For what little it may be worth, I think it would make sense to just make normalization mandatory in localeCompare(). Of course, I don't know if that causes trouble for anybody (I'm pretty sure it doesn't for me). --Rich Gillam Lab126 _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
