Thanks, Thierry. Yes, I'm beginning to conclude that that's the only thing
that I can do, too. It doesn't really solve the problem though, when you
have flexibility wrt box size or fonts, accessibility zooming, etc. Oh
well...
Glad you enjoyed the talk.

IE still truncates the French, rather than wrapping it. I will probably
have to resort to using , but that's far from ideal for boxes with
some flex to them or when users may have different fonts etc.

FWIW you may find this useful for Latin char
s two bytes: C3 A5. So the fact that you
are seeing it indicates that the system recognised the Unicode encoding :-)
RI
PS: You may find my Unicode converter a useful play tool for this kind of
thing. It's a bit rough and ready, but it's useful.

Semantic markup like this also makes it much easier to change your mind as
you evolve the styling, and to use alternative conventions for localized

By rights, it shouldn't validate as is, since XML requires an XML
