Unfortunately I know far more about character encoding than any sane person should. A previous startup of mine dealt with the management and tracking of enormous amounts of RSS feeds from all around the world. It was not uncommon to get a feed that declared itself UTF-8, had a server header say it was Shift-JIS and contained Windows-1252 characters. or other such fun. -- Adam Kalsey http://kalsey.com | 916.600.2497 | aim/skype: akalsey Get alerted by IM when your favorite sites are updated for FREE with Feed Crier -- http://feedcrier.com/ _______________________________________________ py-transports mailing list py-transports@blathersource.org http://lists.modevia.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/py-transports
