I don't know about using various character sets in a single HTML document, but you could use Unicode (either &xUUUU; or UTF-8 encoding). HTML does have an attribute to specify the language that a block of text is in, and if the browser is smart, it can pick a good font for that language. See http://crism.maden.org/dunno.html for an example. http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/dirlang.html is the HTML spec on the language stuff... |
