I think the problem is that your web server forces a character set which prevents the character set in the HTML from taking effect: [simon@zaphod:~] fetch -o /dev/null -vv http://tux.t-hosting.hu/data/about.html | & grep Content-Type: <<< Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-2 I'm not exactly sure how some of the other translations are handling using non ISO-8859-1, but since e.g. ja and ru translations use something which definitely isn't Latin characters I'm sure it can be done. See how those translations changes the character set as needed. -- Simon L.
