Linh, hehe..in order to view this, you need an xterm capabable of viewing vietnamese fonts. YOu need to install the /usr/ports/vietnamese/vnxfonts. Then add it to your X11 font path (via xset); then spawn an xterm with the vietnamese fonts (perhaps vn9x15). Then you can view it ;). I do not have time for the SGML nor dynamic HTML stuff, but perhaps will try to do so in the next few days. Thanks your input.
