I'd rather have a nice looking page that works on 99% of the browsers, than a not-so-nice looking one that works on 100%. >> Okay ... so don't output the charset meta tag at all? > > That's better.

It isn't valid XHTML if we don't specify a charset. Testing on Mozilla, if I have a document that contains: Hello Théo, welcome to my Straße! This only renders completely properly if the charset is ISO-8859-1. HTML entities render in UTF-8 and US-ASCII, but the "ß" does not. Even using the character set your emails to me come in ("ISO-2022-JP") renders the HTML entities correctly, but fails on the un-encoded character. I really think the best solution (not perfect, but best) is to specify some fonts so the pages look nice, and hard code in the ISO-8859-1 font. - Colin
