Unicode Characters failing to display

Assigned p1 because it hinders completetion of documentation. Hi, this appears it might be similar to unresolved issue 28626 http://eo.openoffice.org is not correclty displaying UTF-8 characters. It display correctly on my local machine in my CVS directory but not on the website. I've gone through and check all of the 'wrapper' HTML code that tigris appears to be using and it's the same code as other native-lang projects's wrappers. Any ideas how we can fix this? Thanks, Joey
first, let's lower priority ;) p2 or p3 seems just as effective. p1 means everyone dropping everything to work on this. second, I looked at your eo/www/index.html and it--and I guess all--of your webpages are set to latin-1, not utf-8. Why? because if you don't specify it, it will default (in this case) to latin-1. Solution: set pages to utf-8 in meta tag and in character. You might also get rid of the Doctype declaration; not needed. For how our style works, read http://www.openoffice.org/styles/ Cheers, Louis
Hi Louis... they are set utf-8 unless I missed something??? <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
I see no set: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Bonvenon al OpenOffice.org en Esperanto</title> <meta content="Donald, Tim, kaj Joey" name="author"> <meta content="Really Cool Esperanto People" name="description"> </head> <body> this from eo/www/index.html -louis
ok, I found the problem. I needed to add a 2nd meta tag to the source
