I wonder if some of you wonderful people out there can help me out with a small problem.
Can you click on "View" at the top-left of this page, and then select "Encoding" and tell me what your setting is, ie, Unicode, Western, Cyrillic, and then what sub-menu you are on ie, for Unicode, UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32, UTF-7.
The reason I need to know is that my system is all arse about face, and I need to get back to homebase. :-doh!

Thanks
Rob

Thanks Rolf, but what sub-menu ISO-8859-1, or ISO-8859-15, or Windows-1252, or last but not least USASC11. :cool:

Got so mixed up with trying to get the Russian Cyrillic alphabet right that I have ended screwing up everything else, for example my £ sign shows up as a J on some browsers.
And the Russian alphabet is a complete mess, so I'm hoping to get all my browsers (IE, Opera, Firefox, Netscape back to square one and then leave well alone. :)

Think I've cracked it now, on IE, Netscape, and Firefox it is as Rolf and Lancelot said Western ISO-8859-1, but on Opera that would not work and after selecting Auto Selection decided to change the fonts.
Go to Tools in Opera - Preferences - Advanced - Fonts, then double click on the type you what to change, then select font type and size.
Now the pound sign in English is £, and the Russian Cyrillic alphabet is readable.
I'm not going to touch anything else, that's it. O-no
