The HTML5 validator could very well show a warning for displaying ISO-8859-15. HTML5 excplicitly allows such a warning. Mike, would you add a such a warning? Consider it a feature request from my part! This is what HTML5 says: [1] ]] Authors are encouraged to use UTF-8. Conformance checkers may advise authors against using legacy encodings. [RFC3629] Authoring tools should default to using UTF-8 for newly-created documents. [RFC3629] [ snip ] Using non-UTF-8 encodings can have unexpected results on form submission and URL encodings, which use the document's character encoding by default.
