I thought utf8 worked as follows: Table 2 UTF-8 Bit Encoding of a Unicode Code Point Character Range Bit Encoding U+0000 - U+007F 0xxxxxxx U+0080 - U+07FF 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx U+0800 - U+FFFF 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx U+10000 - U+10FFFF 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx (from: http://www.sun.com/developers/gadc/technicalpublications/articles/utf8.html) Which would require characters > 127. Isn't this how we are supposed to display unicode in a web page? This does work in IE - I can mix Russian and Chinese. thanks - dave ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lloyd Wood" <l.wood@eim.surrey.ac.uk> To: "Brant Langer Gurganus" <brantgurganus2001@cherokeescouting.org> Cc: "David Thielen" <dave@windward.net>; <www-validator@w3.org> Sent: Monday, April 07, 2003 6:35 PM Subject: Re: utf-8 validation error > On Mon, 7 Apr 2003, Brant Langer Gurganus wrote: > > > David Thielen wrote: > > > > > The validator gives me an error on characters > 127 > > > > Characters between 128 and 256 are PC-specific characters. > > unless you're using a Mac, and its equally weird high-bit charset... > either way, interpreted differently across platforms. > > L. > > <http://www.ee.surrey.ac.uk/Personal/L.Wood/><L.Wood@ee.surrey.ac.uk> >Received on Monday, 7 April 2003 22:21:08 UTC
