Some of the Japanese characters in page http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator.html.ja have been corrupted, as the JIS codes contain '<' symbols that were erroneously converted to '<'. I'm not sure how, when or why this happened, but I thought you'd like to know anyway. I can't seem to get Outlook to include both corrupt and corrected text here, so I've attached a text and GIF version. N.B. I noted similar errors with Dave Raggett's HTML-Tidy when used on Shift-JIS pages via Tidy's ISO-2022 setting. Characters including hi-ASCII 0A0h, which is I believe a non-breakable space in Latin-1, have their second half converted to and hence corrupted. Of course this is intended for JIS pages rather than Shift-JIS -- but I thought it might just work, as you almost never see any 7-bit JIS except in e-mail. In my experience, almost all Japanese web pages are either Shift-JIS or EUC, with a few Unicode sites starting to creep in. FWIW Tidy seems to works OK on Shift-JIS via its Raw setting.
