Subject: AW: AW: rendering trademark in HTML using DSSSL and Navigator From: Roland Schopf <Roland.Schopf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 29 Aug 2000 11:50:21 +0200 |
We are using Netscape Communicator 4.73. To be able to display characters like Sigma you need to: - use utf-8 in OJ - no indication of the character set in HTTP header - no indication of the character set in META tag - Manually set default character in netscape to utf-8 When all these settings are done netscape displays Sigma correctly. In HTML it is encoded as Σ I my opinion Brandon is on the right track, OJ already decodes some of those entities and generates binary codes - not decimal encoded entities. Does anybody know how OJ handles these entity declarations internally?? Does it matter that my OJ runs on a WinNT machine?
