Hi all,

I have just built my webpage. Due to some special characters used, it won't
show properly in WESTERN ISO charset... it has be shown using some Asian
language charsets. I have tried. If the browser uses WESTERN ISO, it shows
some junky chars... so how can I put some commands in my HTML document to
force the browser to user certain charsets, instead of the default WESTERN
ISO?

thanks a lot

You can add the character set tag to your page or create the characters as part of a image.

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">

No use... I have tried:

<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=GB2312">

it does not force the browser into "GB2312",... it still stays at "WESTERN
ISO"... what do I do?

Thanks a lot!
