Re: DOCBOOK: Latin-2 character entities in html

[Norman Walsh <ndw at nwalsh dot com>]

/ Colin Paul Adams <colin@colina.demon.co.uk> was heard to say:
| I have a document that makes use of two Latin-2 character entities:
| 
| &omacr; &umacr;
| 
| When I process the document (using DocBook 3.1, dsssl, as distributed
| with RedHat 6.2), the postscript or pdf versions look fine. But the
| html version shows these characters as a ?, even if I change Netscape
| to use the Latin-2 character encoding (I also tried the Unicode 2.0
| encoding).
| 
| Is there something I can do about this?

I don't think so. If you turn them into numeric character
references, does that work? (I mean, try it by hand and see if
the browser does the right thing; if so, you can probably get
that effect.)

                                        Be seeing you,
