I think we used graphics for some parts too - which looked really great when the user resized the font...

If you look at the source they're in there: Ganghellor o g?yn ...so I don't think it's a font problem in this case, but the wrong encoding used somewhere in the processing. I remember the pain of encoding issues - especially going from an XML source to HTML in browsers - was it somewhere in my app, somewhere in the XSLT, was it served using the wrong mime type, does it have wrong meta, or is displayed using the wrong font etc, or was it just the output window in eclipse or ultraedit. I should thank Mike Champion who used to write long posts over on xsl-list explaining encoding to me - thanks Mike! -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com Kernow: http://kernowforsaxon.sf.net/
