An amateur's explanation of what can be done to make the HTML code
'understandable' to Netscape Navigator 4, without actually encoding in
UTF-8:

-Meta tag the document as UTF-8

-Encode characters beyond U+00FF as decimal NCRs (è). [Entities
(è) can also be used in characters for which they are defined.]
Be aware that hexadecimal NCRs (è) will not work.
