According to the specs, you really do need to declare what character encoding has been used in your files, especially if it's something other than US-ASCII or ISO-8859-1 (the latter being the old default for when no specific charset encoding was sent). And it really should be done in the HTTP headers rather than in any HTML files, and it certainly can't be done inside plain text files. If you don't provide any charset encoding details to the web browser, some will play guessing games as to what they should use, and make mistakes. I see that often. This is information that the webmaster should be providing so that websites "just work" for all that try to use them, without requiring the visitor to make any adjustments. Something else just occured to me about your problem with adding big5 not being noticed: Is it meant to be big-5, big5, or Big5? -- (This box runs FC6, my others run FC4 & FC5, in case that's important to the thread.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
