[SLUG] problem with Displaying German characters under mozilla in Linux
Hi all, I am having a problem under linux.. with my html... with german characters.. Nothing is wrong with the system, every other german web page displays properly. Problem is the word höchsten in the following page. When it gets displayed in the browser it gets shown as höchsten. I know something is wrong - just not sure what it is. html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml; lang=de xml:lang=de head titleLG GDR-H30N/title meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 /head body table height=708 width=100% border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 tr td id=header DVD-Rom Laufwerk /td /tr tr td id=maintable width=100% border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 tr tdimg name=graphics1 align=left border=0 width=550 height=421 src=#xA; ../Images/LG-GDR-H10N_350_lge.jpg#xA; //td td h3 class=red Mit einer Geschwindigkeit von 16x (22.1 MB/Sek) wird das LG GDR-H30N höchsten /h3 p/p table id=spec width=100% border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 tr td h3 class=red Specs:/h3 ul type=disc li 52 Speed /li /ul /td /tr/table /td /tr /table/td /tr tr td id=footer table width=100% border=0 id=priceBar tr td width=73% align=right/td td width=27% align=righth1 /h1/td /tr /table /td /tr /table /body /html -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html

Hi David The problem is the meta tag sets a wrong encoding for the xhtml documents. in meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 change iso-8859-1 to utf8 : html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml; lang=de xml:lang=de head titleLG GDR-H30N/title meta http-equiv=content-type content=text/html; charset=utf8 /head body . . . /html On Wed, Jun 18, 2008 at 1:30 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, I am having a problem under linux.. with my html... with german characters..
