If you’re using a CMS, XML and/or some other sort of phasing exercise care with character coding and declarations. I’ve seen some bugs with special characters not displaying properly in the final HTML. After much poking around it turned out to be a CMS spitting out UTF and a phaser expecting ISO characters. Obvious stuff but can be a real pain to diagnose. Andrew You can claim your Medicare rebate at the doctor's. Ask if they offer Medicare electronic claiming next time you visit. ______________________________________________________________________ ******************************************************************************** NOTICE - This message is intended only for the use of the addressee named above and may contain privileged and confidential information.
