I am working in the Chinese users' environment. The users are usually 
using Chinese (Simplified GB2312 & Traditional BIG5) Windows 
(98/ME/2k/XP) and with IE 5.0/5.5/6.0 .

I found that the login page breaks the display in those Chinese Internet 
Explorer. For the screenshot please go to this link:
http://www.geocities.com/tonywebmail2002/sqWebmail/page_01.htm

This is due to the default encoding of the browser is "Traditional 
Chinese Big5" or "Simplified Chinese GB2312". If the user change the 
display encoding to Western Characters (ISO or Windows), the screen back 
to normal.

When the display is changed to Korean Hangul, same problem occurs.

However, if the browser is changed to Mozilla, the screens aren't broken.

I think this issue is due to those HTML template files contain the 
character 160, non-breaking space. This problem can be solved simply by 
changing all those chr(160) to HTML-standard  

Would the sqWebmail development team awares this issue and make this 
minor adjustment to be more Chinese-friendly and Korean-friendly?
