Language becomes another attribute just like you use character Bold, Italic, etc. For other tools see: http://www.tiziana.com/tools.html =============== > > 3- What do I need on my system (MacOS, Windows95, Unix) to write and read > multilingual HTML documents on Web, and where can I find these resources or > softwares? =========== If you use a browser like Tango you don't need anything, not even fonts to display all languages in html docs. For other browsers you need fonts for instance to display double byte languages.
