Unless countermanded... I's only a "default." I certainly get
different character sets if I do the trick where you play with
filenames.
e.g. testpage.html.iso88591 and I've set a directive so that file
suffixe has meaning.
OK, you can override it using apache directives (I assume that's what
you mean), but it (the AddDefaultCharset) overrides anything else set
by 'client' code as it were.
Hi Chris,
The default can be overridden. Here's another way. Let's assume the
script's name is test and is in /var/www/cgi-bin:
<Directory /var/www/cgi-bin>
<Files test>
AddDefaultCharset ISO-8859-1
</Files>
</Directory>
Tested in Apache/2.2.6 (unix)
hth,
Mike Wright :m)
