HTML5 and CSS3 are ok for experimental purposes, but UTF-8 was standardized in '93. Is it going to be added in the next version?

Hi Cary

Well you will like this news then! The beta version of the Editor we have all been talking about has UTF-8 support now. If you are interested in testing it out, drop me an e-mail.

Hi

I'm very new here, so I hope I'm not in a wrong topic. If so, I'm sorry!

Just reading your offer to test utf-8 support, I would like to let you know I'm also interested in such test.

Today I bought CoffeeCup and played around but soon I came in trouble with our accented letters.
I am Dutchspeaking from Flanders in Belgium en use a lot of accents on some vowels:
é è ë ï , ....

Although there is a mention of "charset=utf-8" in the heading of a new page, I still have trouble to see the right characters in my browser(s).

<meta name="created" content="ma, 28 jun 2010 18:11:40 GMT" />
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />


When I write in normal utf-8 system, the visitor of the site get black questionmarks in the browser.
When I like to see the text normal, I have a lot of "strange" codes in my html-files.
Like this

Samen, &eacute;&eacute;nmaal per maand,


To proof that your program is very userfriendly and works very quickly, you can visit my (not finished) testsite (if you want) I've already made with the free Coffeecup as trial.
