No, it's simple: - ISO Latin 1 (aka ISO-8859-1, what M$ calls ISO West) has no euro sign. - ISO Latin 9 (aka ISO-8859-15) is basically the same as Latin 1, but some characters changed, and the euro sign has been added [1]. - UTF-8 is a unicode character set, and unicode has the euro sign. Which is all true but note that you can have (in html or xml) a euro sign in files with any of those encodings. In the second two the sign can be encoded directly as character data, then whether or not it displays depends on whether th ebrowser knows that encoding. in the first, the character should be linearised as & # x 20ac; and should render correctly whatever encoding the browser thinks the file is in, so long as the browser can render the character at all.
