use utf-8 as an encoding on the oage, and look up the characters on a utf-8 reference. They will be expressed as &#nnnn;

Apologies in advance for a nearly completely off-topic question. I know I might find more interest in an HTML forum, but I don't currently belong to one, so I thought I'd ask here before I look to unfamiliar forums. Among the many hats I wear, one is that of webmaster for a reading orchestra that meets weekly. Each week I post the next rehearsal's repertoire on the home page and we keep both a future schedule and an archive, both database-driven, on a separate page. There are of course a number of composers whose names have non-English characters in their names. This week Dvorak is the problem. Although there is a Unicode value for the 'r' with a caron (as it should appear in his name), when I try to include the code in the HTML, the wrong character comes up (a capital Y with an umlaut). I have not found a way to put the accented 'r' into the web page. There are others that cause similar problems. Is there another character set - the <head> section of each of our pages specifies "charset=iso-8859-1" - I could use that would work in U.S. browsers but include these (mostly Central European) accent marks? Thanks in advance. Karl_____________________________________________
