Okay, then w3m is failing for the same reason that netscape and mozilla are failing: my resolver refuses to resolve names with non-LDH labels, even if I put "options no-check-names" in /etc/resolv.conf. "J. William Semich" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > try the links in various encodings on these pages .... > > http://www.worldnames.net/pages/demo.cfm Same story. My resolver refuses to return the address. Curiously, my three browsers apparently try to do three different lookups. All three display the Shift-JIS text correctly, but for the first link, netscape 4.x does a lookup on ��Ͽ��.nu, mozilla does a lookup on %e7%99%bb%e9%8c%b2%e6%89%80.nu, and w3m does a lookup on %93o%98^%8F%8A.nu. I haven't checked, but I'm guessing that netscape 4.x converts the host name to euc-jp, mozilla converts it to UTF-8 and then %-escapes it, and w3m leaves it as shift_jis but then %-escapes it. AMC
