I also maintain some websites which is already coded in latin 1.<BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"></SPAN> </DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>But I think it's bad behaviour that it doesn't warn you that it's changing the encoding. It messes up the whole document unless you undo it. If you try to revert to latin 1 (by reopen by encoding) after it has swapped it, the old text is still messed up.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>It would be nice to have an option to paste text at the current encoding and truncate characters not availible. That is a better option than destroying a document (when you are forced to keep it in latin 1). It costs so much time to change all the garbaged text by hand afterwards.</DIV><BR><DIV><DIV>On 30/03/2007, at 16.34, Ollivier Robert wrote:</DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"><BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"><P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">Allan, being a die hard utf-8 fan, won't support anything other than latin1</FONT></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">(which is a bit of a pity but I understand him).</FONT></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica; min-height: 14.0px"><BR></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">That's easy for me to say but converting everything over to utf-8 would be</FONT></P> <P style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px"><FONT face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">better in the long run.</FONT></P> </BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR></BODY></HTML>
