Dom, I use these two functions in my library to deal with utf8:
function utf8decode pString
return unidecode(uniencode(pString,"UTF8"))
end utf8decode
function utf8encode pString
return unidecode(uniencode(pString),"UTF8")
end utf8encode
They will convert to and from whatever you're local charset is.
Best,
Mark Smith

Here in France, we have a subsidiary of weather.com named

Anyway, your technique is working -- but, as the web is coded
according
to the UTF-8 charset, there are some woes with the accented characters
;->
The "charset" property of a stack is read-only - and can only be
"MacOS"
or "ISO" (i.e. ISO 8859, Latin)
Is it possible to work around this, not by hand?
Will the UTF-8 charset be implemented in the future?
something like "UTFTo mac" and "MacToUTF" ;-)

I preferred to take the "Mobile" version, as the code is simpler to
parse
