Re: charset iso-8859-8-i

charset only defines what letter will be shown for each number, not the 
order.
The -i was added for browsers to distinguish between visual and logical 
hebrew.

From a pure character point of view, there is no difference between 
iso-8859-8 and iso-8859-8-i.  The difference is that iso-8859-8 implies 
Hebrew text in Visual order, and iso-8859-8-i implies Hebrew text in 
Implicit (a.k.a. Logical) order.
Both are registered at IANA, but of course implementations may choose to 
support any subset they like.

charset iso-8859-8-i


Hi,
My question refers to an old message of yours (about one year ago) in
which ou mention this character set:
What is the difference between this set and the iso-8859-8 ?
On my system (debian/testing, kernel 2.4.?? ) ican find only the latter.
If there are differences, please indicate where can I find the -i
version.
Thanks, Avraham
