the user agents in question are various mobile phones, which as you
might guess are premature technology and have their own ways with
things.
here is an example posting from a Samsung D600 which insists on
posting form data in UTF-8 even though i serve it ISO-8859-1 and it
claims to support all character sets.
[_POST] => Array
(
[message] => Norwegian characters: øá
)
[_SERVER] => Array
(
[HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET] => *
[CONTENT_TYPE] => application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8
[HTTP_USER_AGENT] => SAMSUNG-SGH-D600E/1.0
Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 UP.Browser/6.2.3.3.c.1.101
(GUI) MMP/2.0
)
i would consider switching to utf-8 if i knew how make the windows
version of emacs work fine with utf-8 text files (and still work with
iso-8859-1 files as well).
