View Full Version : No UTF-16 Support?
We're trying to send a blog as UTF-16 and this happened:
http://hopesmith.wordpress.com/
Any suggestions?

I don't know it really is a problem of the web server or not. The page has been successsfully delivered as I can view the page source.
I am not an expert on HTML encodings, I wonder if you change the meta tag in page header from
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="UTF-16" />
to
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-16" />
will help or not.

If I change the encoding from UTF16 to UTF8, then I can view the page properly. I guess then page content is not really in UTF16 encoding.
Within IE6, the result is garbled but source looks good which points to at least the content was delivered as intended.
With Mozilla 1.5, both output and source display mode is grabled. When you Switch to UTF-8 in display, the page displays fine.
Another question perhaps is wether perhaps the system font used to display the page is UTF-16 capable.
Just some observations.
Weird, I'll just chalk it up to bad browsers.
