ANSI, these days, is more often than not a generic name for any one of a dozen or more Windows platform default encodings. These encodings have "code page" numbers as well as a variety of more widely recognized aliases. It is one of the more widely recognized aliases that you need to use. You might try "windows-1252" if you're in the USA or (very-) Western Europe, and if you haven't configured your OS for some other default region. However, if I were you, I would get an editor that doesn't rely on the OS to decide the encoding of the files it writes. Only UTF-8 and UTF-16 are guaranteed to be supported by every XML parser, so it's risky to use any others. There are plenty of editors that can save a file as UTF-8, or that give you a choice. With such an editor, you wouldn't have to guess at the encoding that was used. - Mike ____________________________________________________________________________ mike j. brown | xml/xslt: http://skew.org/xml/ denver/boulder, colorado, usa | resume: http://skew.org/~mike/resume/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
