A parser only *has* to read UTF-8 without signature and UTF-16 with signature. It *may* read other encodings of its own choosing, including ISO 8859-1, SCSU, JOECODE, or US-BSCII. (However, I can't find anything that allows for SCSU with signature, which is a shame since UTS #6 encourages the signature.) -Doug Ewell Fullerton, California
