Subject: RE: The ' fada ' in Irish vowels
Hello Áine,

The numbered ISO Characters only work correctly if the correct character set is set in the header section of the page. As the forum creates pages which do not have a character set set, it is safer to use the &[Vowel of your choice*)]acute; as this can be interpreted by the browser independent of the current character set.


*) make note that the character entities are one of the view things where it matters whether you use upper or lowercase!
