Re: ISO-10646 in HTML 4.01

LOL, yeah! Sorry, I had been up all night crunching code, and was dead
on my keyboard! I use the online text editor that my host provides. 

I re-worked most of that page.....I have NO errors now! WHooo--hooooooo!
(Now on to the other pages in the site..)

How bad is it to just NOT put ANY charset on a page? I mean, Certainly
my host has it set on the server itself, right?

Is there any way to find out what he has it set for.....other than
asking him?

If you say you write by hand, I'm sure you mean that you use a plain
text editor, and that you work on some kind of computer with an
operating system.

As for the character on line 87, I saw that too yesterday. Now the
problem seems to be gone. Anyway, it looks like you only use
ASCII characters, so us-ascii should be fine.
