____________________Forward Header_____________________ Subject: Character encoding systems for Arabic Web pages ? Author: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 2001-01-31 6:35 PM Dear Arabist's, Does someone please know about a recent survey or study about character encoding systems that are used for Arabic Web sites (over the world) ? If possible I would like to collect a kind of "classification" with some correct and precise numbers and percentages between the various used encoding systems (ASMO, DOS, ISO-6, CP1256, Unicode, ...). Important: If possible I also would like to know the percentage of Arabic Web pages that are composed of scanned texts (GIFs). I promise to share this information with you. I know it is useful for most of us. Shukran in advance.
