The advanced version the validator page <http://validator.w3.org:8001/detailed.html> allows selecting a character encoding. In the list of available encodings is "iso-8859-3 (Maltese)". That encoding is however not just for Maltese. It is also for Esperanto and Turkish. In my experience it is nowadays used mostly for Esperanto, probably a lot more for Esperanto than for Maltese, and hardly ever for Turkish. Mozilla calls it "Southern European". In the list of encodings in the validator interface perhaps "Southern Europe" would fit in well after "Western Europe" and "Central Europe". But "Esperanto, Maltese" would probably be a better choice. If only one language can be mentioned, then the one most often used with "iso-8859-3" should be the one mentioned. -- Bertilo Wennergren <bertilow@gmx.net> <http://www.bertilow.com>
