* rewrite all templates in utf
This much is straightforward: iconv could do much of the legwork, as could html tidy.
What would specifically be involved in rewriting the templates? -- changing the encoding in the document head (adding an xml prologue would be the most correct way of doing this, but this causes display problems in Internet Explorer. The recommended method at present is to use <meta http-equiv="Content- Type"...>) -- altering the encoding of some characters in the templates? I wonder if this affects the English templates? What else? If you were using tidy to clean up templates, you'd have to configure it to only alter the character encoding, and not touch the document structure, right? -- Owen
