I never try to build www pages from sgmls, perhaps Aleksey (phantom) can try. BTW, can it be replaced diretly in HTMLlat1 as a patch? I see no harm if © etc. will appearse in latin1 docs too instead of hardcoded values. Browsers usually have manual code page switching ability, so user entered to FreeBSD www may have different code page manually selected. Since FreeBSD and mirrors Apache not instruct browser to switch to iso-8859-1, user can see FreeBSD code page in different encoding he pre-select. In such case all hardcoded values will be wrong, but all symbolic names still show properly. So I vote for symbolic names even for Latin1 pages. > # Actually, Japanese-doc(uses 8bit character code) has > # the same problem.
