Is it possible to get a list of the character entities supported by htmlText
(or a link to the reference used)?
Also, I have the impression that when non-ascii characters are found in the
text which do not have a corresponding character entity name, they are
mapped in some way to a particular character set, and then expressed as
codes, eg "”". Is this in ISO-8859-1? Eg if on the Mac you set the
text of a field to "numtochar(165)", which is bullet, you'll find that the
"htmlText" of the field is "•". Can Scott (or someone) confirm that
this is what is happening, and what happens when there is no mapping for the
character in the 'local' character set to the destination one (ISO-8859-1,
if it is that)?
