Hi, Reading through [1] I noticed that Microsoft does not map the same charset label to the same windows code page for the following two charsets: "iso-2022-jp" => 50220 "csiso2022jp" => 50221 "iso-8859-6" => 28596 "iso-ir-127" => 28596 "iso_8859-6:1987" => 28596 "iso_8859-6" => 28596 "ecma-114" => 28596 "arabic" => 28596 "csisolatinarabic" => 28596 "asmo-708" => 708 "csiso2022jp" is listed as alias for "iso-2022-jp" as "asmo-708" is listed as alias for "iso-8859-6". Now the first case is probably not an issue since Microsoft already uses different windows code pages for "iso-2022-jp" (50220 and 50222) but the asmo-708 case looks rather odd. Is there something one should know about asmo-708 or are windows code pages 28596 and 708 identical? [1]<http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/charsets/charset4.asp>
