I try to validate this: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xml:lang="se" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>Encoding/charset test</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> </head> <body> <p>ÄÖÅäöå</p> </body> </html> and I get 3 errors that relates to "non SGML character". All 3 errors are in this line: <p>ÄÖÅäöå</p> If I change charset from iso-8859-1 to utf-8, the XHTML will validate without errors, I would have expected this behaviour to be the other way around. If save the XHTML as .html and use the "Validate by File Upload" feature, I get no errors, the XHTML validates fine. Also if this .html file is placed on a webserver, using the "Validate by URL" feature will also validate fine. So, to sum up, I believe there is an issue with the "Validate by direct input" and encoding/charset - it does not seem to be set properly, even though it does say "Encoding: iso-8859-1" a the top of the validation results page. 6376 1 ot 2005-09-21 13:07:05 +0000 This is a known bug we fixed today (in cvs).
