I won't be able to look at the page till later today (at the moment I only have access to a terminal), but I thought I'd answer Orna's question:

Both have the Hebrew letters in the same place, starting at 0xE0. The major difference is that windows-1255 has nikud, which iso-8859-8 lacks. There are some additional differences as well, IIRC windows-1255 has the new shekel sign where iso-8859-8 has the international currency sign, and there are some other similar discrepancies. Another difference that I don't quite understand: I think that in html, pages coded with iso-8859-8-i (visual Hebrew) employ a slightly different bidirectional algorithm than pages coded with windows-1255. This is not based on any knowledge, just experience, so I'm not sure the difference is really related to the code pages. -Ron. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Haifa Linux Club Mailing List (http://www.haifux.org) To unsub send an empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
