I should have written: Accept-Charset: utf-8 Accept-Features: utf-8-cs="<hebrew>", utf-8-cs="<latin-x>", * because we are really talking about how the user agent can make its capabilities known to the server. The content-features header is not really useful. It is only there for symmetry with Accept-Features. Even if it is present in a response, it is not supposed to list all features used by the content, but only the features that were negotiated on. You should be able to know which features to use by looking at the content itself. >Larry Sorry for the confusion, Koen.
