Right. It display fine, but . . .

First, an apology on my part. Poor communication. I was not saying there was anything wrong with the form.

Just that the output had a certain encoding, most likely the same as the input | default enviroment.

For example, I could do a document all in English but still be shift-jis. In fact, I did this once for dozens of pages and had to do them all over. An entire site of research papers. Dumb dumb dumb. But I knew even less then than the little I do now.

Okay, here's the deal. According to the WC3, your valid charset is windows-1252.

I shifted the encoding to iso-8859-1 (western europe) and --exactly as you say-- and display in IE looks good. Nothing quite works, btw, in Netscape.

But then I tested/validated the page and got the same results (illegal characters):

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fcafelog.com%2F052%2F&charset=iso-8859-1+%28Western+Europe%29&doctype=%28detect+automatically%29&ss=&outline=&sp=

Does not validate.

Then, I tested as charset windows-1252:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fcafelog.com%2F052%2F&charset=windows-1252+%28Western+Europe%29&doctype=%28detect+automatically%29&ss=&outline=&sp=

Does validate.
NO errors found, except the charset id, which had to be overridden.

That's my reason(s) for thinking that the input | your current enviroment is windows-1252.

The same way that when I was on a Japanese box, even doing only English, I would by default produce shift-jis encoded docs.
