Subject: WCAG and some linguistics problems

you shall know that in hungarian there are some peculiar graphical
elements
(phonemas) which are not rendered in the usual Ascii - iso 8859 used for
the
Web. So many Hungarian pages are written changing this letters (which
expecially are an o and an u with long Umlaut - in hungarian there era
two
kind of umlaut and meaning can get very different). there is a pretty
easy
example:
tu'rņ' - cottage cheese, written with long plain vowels
and t"uro" - someone who in sopporting something - written with long
umlaut
vowels


Roberto:
Why don't use the right ISO language code as listed in W3C web site[1]?
(iso-8859-2) ?
