(1) Philippe's point was, what if everything is lowercased, as recommended for Plane 14 language tags? (2) No, there are no ISO 3166-2 codes with 4 characters. (3) Even if there were, they wouldn't cause ambiguities in parsing RFC 3066 tags. See my other post. -Doug Ewell Fullerton, California http://users.adelphia.net/~dewell/
