The encoding is indeed supported, as I thought, it was just not listed as supported. http://validator-test.w3.org/check?uri=+http%3A%2F% 2Fpeaceable_whale.sinacampus.com%2FBig5-HKSCS_Test%2FBig5-HKSCS.htm > 2. http://peaceable_whale.sinacampus.com/Big5-HKSCS_Test/Big5.htm > > This page contains the same contents of Big5-HKSCS.htm, but the > encoding is declared as "Big5" intead of "Big5-HKSCS".

This is the kind of heuristic I'm not sure is easy to do. Would you agree that this case *is* an error? Thanks, -- olivier
