Description Terje Bless 2003-02-21 10:00:05 UTC
The error message emitted for missing character encoding should include a link
to better explanation of how to specify it correctly. e.g.
<http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/charset.html>.
Comment 1 Terje Bless 2003-03-01 13:18:42 UTC
Done. &iana_charset_blurb() now adds a link to the WDG page on the subject. See
<http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/validator/httpd/cgi-bin/check.diff?r1=1.305.2.30&r2=1.305.2.31&f=h>.
