If you're a reader, not an "author[...] of [a] UTF-8 decoder", then I don't see where that statement gives you cause to assume anything. It is indeed a bad assumption on the part of the reader. > So who's puzzling here? Not me! It's the content of the text itself. Funny; I've never been puzzled by the text of the document. It's obviously designed to test the edge cases and the failure cases of a UTF-8 decoder. -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm
