RE: [WSG] Entity Name vs Entity Number
You could also read this: http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-escapes/ It contains much of the same advice in Lachlan's article, but a little more about when and when not to use escapes vs characters.

RE: [WSG] IE Issue: focus not set on image buttons within a floated div
I don't know if it's actually related or not, but we had to change our pages to work on IE7. See for example http://www.w3.org/International/articles/language-tags/ The stuff floated to the right (ie. that column) was only partially visible and you couldn't click inside the search field or on any link. The solution was to simply remove the font-style: italics CSS applied to the word 'Internationalization'. I have no idea how that helped, but that's the story for what it's worth.

The culprit seems to be the fact that both are within a div that's floating. Does anyone know a way around this. My client has made an issue of the fact that a user cannot see a visual indicator of focus when the user has tabbed to either of the buttons.

[WSG] RFC 3066 is dead. Long live RFC 4646 (and 4647).
Important news. Although existing language tag values do not need to change, there are some new possibilities available. The [110]Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has published two new specifications for language tags. [111]RFC 4646: Tags for the Identification of Languages replaces RFC 3066 and, with the new [112]IANA Language Subtag Registry, extends language tag syntax to address a number of long-standing issues. The separate [113]RFC 4647: Matching of Language Tags addresses how to match the new tags. The W3C I18n GEO Working Group provides a gentle introduction to the new syntax at http://www.w3.org/International/articles/language-tags/ [110] http://www.ietf.org/ [111] http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4646.txt [112] http://www.iana.org/assignments/language-subtag-registry [113] http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4647.txt Hope that helps, RI Richard Ishida Internationalization Lead W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) http://www.w3.org/People/Ishida/ http://www.w3.org/International/ http://people.w3.org/rishida/blog/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/ishida/ *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

I'll be there and hope to see a number of you. I know Patrick Lauke will be sharing his wisdom. Are there any others? Remember, it's a great time to meet people, trade business cards, share resumes etc. I got my job at Yahoo! after attending the Business Blog Summit. I met a guy from Toshiba who knew a guy from Yahoo and got us both to sign up for a new business blog mailing list, which is where I was noticed. Long story short, go to these events, be friendly, learn tons, and change your life for the better. These conferences may seem pricey, but you get back much more in the long run. So, where can I find some decent vegetarian food in London? Ted Drake Front-end Engineer Yahoo!
