Thank you for this link. It is a great page and I like it better than the W3C version. Even though it is in German, I think it will be easier to use than this one: https://dev.w3.org/html5/spec-LC/named-character-references.html <https://dev.w3.org/html5/spec-LC/named-character-references.html> > > and search for ä Ä ö Ö ü Ü and ß > > you will also find alternative characters for replacement there. > If you send me a copy I think I can do it if you tell me which replacements > work on the server. Once converted to such names or values, the server will not translate them. So, all such HTML entities will be passed along. The issue then becomes wether or not they are supported by the web browser itself. At this time, I think it is probable best to use values "Ä” instead of "Ä” for the “Ä” character. It is likely to be supported better than using name on some browsers. However, I will include both value and names and the mapping data. That way I do not need to look up the conversions a second time. I will probably make the option for FDRepo selectable on which to use. Being something like: MapEntities=off, value or name > > Willi
