This is my favorite. (In the case that the charset is broken, autodetection of UTF-16 is very easy. Moreover, UTF-16 can parse only as UTF-16.) In my environment, I added a few lines to the "httpd.conf" file of Apache. They are as below: AddType "text/html; charset=shift_jis" htm AddType "text/html; charset=shift_jis" html AddType "text/html; charset=utf-8" htm8 AddType "text/html; charset=utf-16" htm16 AddType "text/xml; charset=utf-16" xml AddType "text/xml; charset=utf-8" xml8 AddType "text/xml; charset=utf-16" xml16 Cheers, Makoto Fuji Xerox Information Systems Tel: +81-44-812-7230 Fax: +81-44-812-7231 E-mail: murata@a... xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
