It makes it very hard to convert between different character sets and makes your databases grow.Just make sure the client uses the same character set as the server.BTW: URLs typed into the location field is an exception, not affected by META tags or [SETMIMEHEADER].------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
