Re: website: non-ASCII chars


/ Michael Wiedmann <michael.wiedmann@detewe.de> was heard to say:
| Why can't I use non-ASCII characters (e.g. german Umlauts) directly 
| in website 1.8 XML files? (Instead I have to use "&uuml;")

You can, or should be able to, if you use the right encoding. And
your editing tool understands that encoding.

Try <?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?> at the top of your file.
(Assuming &uuml; is in ISO Latin 1).

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
