Re^2: POD and foreign characters

emacs is fine. There are no problems with emacs and these characters. The original POD file edited using emacs shows the characters as described in hex in the original query.

The problem reads:

How can I ... (do this, do that) ... so that once converted to HTML they are OK.

...Meaning that the POD HTML output is currently _not_ OK.

Sorry for any misunderstanding.

If you currently output utf-8 encoded html, just make sure you set either the `Content-tye: text/html; charset=utf-8` header, use an equivalent META tag, or write an UTF-8 BOM. My recommendation is to use the META tag, since it's most likely to be preserved. For XHTML you can also use an `<?xml encoding="..."?>` prolog.

the POD HTML output is currently _not_ OK Oh, I think it probably is. It's just UTF-8. You need to configure your web server to tell browsers that these files are UTF-8. Try adding the appropriate META tag to the HTML files. See if that improves things. -- <http://dave.org.uk> "The first rule of Perl club is you do not talk about Perl club." -- Chip Salzenberg	[reply]
