�Hola! Saludos � todos:
If I wanted to use my Arachne to compose and send a note in the Spanish
language to another list member, then I would need to use the following
special non-English characters:
�, �, �, �, �, �, �, �
If you are looking at the text .CNM file, the above characters are properly
viewed as� (thus):
ascii 160 = �
ascii 130 = �
ascii 161 = �
ascii 162 = �
ascii 163 = �
ascii 164 = �
ascii 168 = �
ascii 173 = �
In order to get the aforementioned characters to be rendered correctly by
HTML, I have to use the ALT + NUM characters listed below:
225 �
233 �
237 �
243 �
250 �
241 �
191 �
161 �
Now I have a question:
Why is HTML programmed in such a way so as to not perform a one-for-one
rendering of high ascii characters? IMHO, it would seem a good idea if
all HTML viewers and text-to-HTML converters were to adhere to the
international ascii standard. This would eliminate many problems in
attempting to correspond with someone in a language that is other than one's
own.
�F�jense como el sistema es muy chiflado!
Look at how the system is so fouled up!
I would appreciate any comments and ideas concerning my question.
Muchas gracias,
Sam Heywood
