Hello Ming-Li,

I don't think it will work for you. The problem wirh different
charsets in Russian is that the same characters are mapped
differently. It is not font problem or something. It means that
Russian "A" for example which is C0 in windows-1251 supposed to be
changed to E0 in KOI8-R and so on. So in viewer when you are changing
codepage TB! just puts filter to characters which will translate E0 to
C0 and I will see "A" letter. But if you will take text in
windows-1251, put the filter on it and show it in the editor window
you will see garbage. It doesn't matter what Russian codepage I will
choose after it because it will filter the text before the sending but
not change it on the screen.
Hope this explanation was good and you understand what I'm talking
about.

Hm... This is strange.
For example on my pages I see parts of JavaScript text which I suppose
not to see. On other pages I see only part of text but probably it is
the same script reason so TB! cannot understand where is the end of
the text.
ML> BTW, my IE is version 5.5, if that matters.
The same here.
