Hi People
May be I am too newbie to understand the question, but may be I
have a hint.

One of our archives has texts in Turkish.
To enable the surfers to read them I was adviced to include
the charset=windows-1254 in the .rc file using the following lines:

<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=windows-1254">
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-9">

See below the location of the lines in the header of the part
of the .rc file that convert the incoming posts to the html of the archive:
