HTML - Html Charset Question
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO 8859-1"> <title>Insert title here</title> </head> <body> <pre> if( a < b && c > d) //java code example { System.out.println("hdsfdslkf"); } </pre> </body> </html> i have confusion about the above code, so i wrote this html page in eclipse 3.2 j2ee. So, when i first wrote this program it gave me an error about character encoding which then i changed its charset to UTF-8 and then it worked fine. however the real problem is this was my HW problem, finding out what was wrong with the code.And, i thought it depends upon the charset defined in the document itself. So i am really curious i would really appreciate any help. thank you denis. Similar TutorialsHi I'm sending an HTML file as an Email attachment. When I send it the <meta> tag contains "charset=iso-8859-8" - Hebrew(ISO-Visual) but when the recipiant opens it the charset has changed to "charset=iso-8859-8-i" - Hebrew(ISO-Logical) which causes the text to appear left-to-right instead of right-to-left as I sent it. What causes this behaviour and how can I correct it? Thanks for any help David Paddling upstream searching for the source so how to use multiple charset in a page i have a part of the page uses windows-1256 and the rest of the page uses utf-8???? how to use the 2 charsets without making confliction between the 2 charsets?? the top the page uses HTML Code: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1256" /> and the rest uses HTML Code: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> What is the best charset to use for an American English website that targets the USA 100%? What about an American English web site that targets the USA about 80% of the time and every other country in the world about 20% of the time? hi ! I need help with chars encoding on some project in source with encoding "Windows-1251" I have line Code: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1251" /> but when I or someone other visit site encoding is UTF-8 and he can't read Cyrillic chars any help will be good for me I need help understanding the The charset parameter, see example below: Code: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> I checked the W3C pages on the subject, but I am still confused. Dreamweaver inserts by default the example stated above, but looking back on sites I built in the past, apparently it inserted different lines, for instance: Code: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> Can anyone shed light on this? I was wondering if it is required to use the following in XHTML. This: HTML Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> Instead of: HTML Code: <meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> And... This: HTML Code: <?xml-stylesheet href="style.css" type="text/css"?> Instead of: HTML Code: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" /> Also, what charset do you recommend and should I use XHTML 2.0 instead of XHTML 1.0? Thanks! - Jason - Here is my issue: I'm loading an XML that contains special characters (like French characters) and they are not displaying properly. My XML file is encoded in UTF-8. My charset is set to UTF-8 in my HTML document. Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" /> When I take out the charset completely (don't declare character encoding at all), it displays properly?! (Ack!) I want my HTML to validate properly because I'm attempting to write clean XHTML, but this is leaving me a bit confused. Can anyone explain what is happening? Why does it display correctly when I don't specify a charset? I am the owner of http://www.translationhelp.com and I am debating whether to use Unicode on the pages or not. There are over 500 translators in the database (but not yet fully registered as the site is still in development). Each of these translators needs to create at least two "profile" web pages (one in their source language and one in their target language). This means I need to have the ability to allow the translators to enter their profile information in two separate forms when they register in their respective languages so that the form contents once submitted will display properly in the user's browser ("user" here means potential clients looking for a translator). I have heard of some problems with Unicode and browser/computer configuration so I am not sure if that is the best solution. It also seems more complex and therefore more expensive and perhaps more prone to bugs. I am also not sure how to implement Unicode so that the translators can read/type their info into the form in their languages and the pages resulting from the form submission are displayed in Unicode. The other solution is to set the form pages to be displayed automatically using the specific language charset for that page and to display the web pages using the charset of that page's language. The problem is that I have not had the actual site pages translated yet (that is coming soon) and the common elements (menus etc.) are all in English. This will mean a translator's profile page with a language charset of Japanese (for example) will also have menu items in English. The combination of the two languages is troublesome and the only solution I can come up with is to use Unicode OR display these pages without menus using a target "_blank" to open a new browser window and a couple of images (in English) to close the window or whatever. I have been thinking and wondering about this for some time and I could use any help or opinions to get me over the hump of indecision I am stuck at. Hi Gang. I'm new to html programing and have what will more than likely be seen as a couple of dumb questions but here goes. What do I have to do to eliminate the need to include .html on links to new pages. What I am finding is that http://mydomain/list.html for example will not work if I type http://mydomain/list Also the links to html pages that I create will only work if I use lower case letters. What do I have to do to make this work with either upper or lower case. Thanks a bunch for any help you can supply. I would like to prompt for name & email address without using php. Possible and if so, how? Hi , how to add thick border for html table only for one side of the cell? Please let me know .

Is there any code to help thank u Hi, there I have a strange question about html site https://www.molten-wow.com/ I have created an account for you to try : Username - daozealot Password - gogogo so... the question. When you log in, you have "Vote Points : 13" when you go to "vote for molten wow" there are 5 Triggers (links to visit) which increment the Vote Points. Isn't there a way to make an html, which can connect to the site... and connect to the account... and increment the points ? Or I should find a way to make it with javascript ? All, I'm having some serious issues using a tag to a website for one of my clients. I'm using the Code: <sarcasm></sarcasm> tag in some of my code, but it does not appear to be displaying properly in certain web browsers. Firefox and Opera seem to work OK, but IE and Safari ignore the tag completely. I have over 5 years of coding in experience in HTML5, CSS, and HTML, but none in MSHTML, which is what I currently must use. Has anyone else run into this problem in the past?
