The problem is that this can be set in both the webpage, and the server serving up the pages. This is not very clear to me, but I believe that the server can override the specification in the document. Take a look at the Unix/Linux Unicode FAQ question regarding UTF-8 on the web: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html#web Another solution (which I personally detest, but accept that one might be forced into it) is the Byte Order Mark (BOM). Sort of like a Star of David. See the Unicode BOM FAQ at http://www.unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#BOM Regards, Gora __________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
