However it has no encoding set in HTTPSocket's content. How would I check if there are any characters in "content" that would not display in ASCII? I've tried ConvertEncoding, and also a loop where it checks Asc(I) on every character to see if it is over 31 and less than 127, but sometimes wrong characters get through, like the UTF-8 right crave accent (sp?), aka " ��� " which is not a correct apostrophe. How's that even possible? If it matters, this is a software that downloads user-written reviews on hotels. I have no control over what characters are accepted in the reviews, that's not my section, so it has to be done with software.
