We have several times found that Amaya strips the charset declaration, ie. in our case, <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> from an XHTML file during either editing or saving. This is bad enough normally, but we are posting files now without the XML declaration to ensure that IE works in standards mode. That leaves the file without any internal encoding information. Please rectify this as soon as possible. Also, please check whether Amaya takes any other such decisions on behalf of the user. In my opinion the default should be to leave the file untouched. If any cleaning is done it should be an option and the user should be asked whether it is appropriate.
