But that doesn't provide me dynamic switching between character sets
based on user preferences. Based on HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET we can choose
to use iso-8859-1 or utf8, plus we need to force Japanese to use
x-euc-jp on certain platforms, sjis on others.
Tell us, how do you do the character set conversion behind the scenes
for various data sources? Do you just leave everything to
XML::Parser? What about DB sources? What about data on disk? Can
you switch this on the fly for various browser condition?
Inquiring minds want to know.
thanks.
