Thanks to Gwendoline Clavé, Clavoline Traduction for providing these translations.

The article The byte-order mark (BOM) in HTML was updated significantly to reflect the fact that the byte-order mark in UTF-8 is less problematic now than it used to be, and that it has a higher precedence than the HTTP header for character encoding detection.

The article was largely rewritten, and now incorporates the relevant information that used to be in the article “Display problems caused by the UTF-8 BOM”. That article has now been decommissioned.

German, Spanish, Russian and Ukrainian translations need to be updated. Translators, please contact Richard Ishida (ishida@w3.org) for the source text.

Some articles are brand new and others were originally part of a tutorial, but have been updated and amplified to bring HTML5 to the fore and incorporate feedback from various readers. The articles are:

1. Character encodings: Essential concepts
2. Choosing & applying a character encoding
3. Declaring character encodings in HTML
4. The byte-order mark (BOM) in HTML
5. Normalization in HTML and CSS
6. Characters or markup?

Together these articles, with several other existing articles that were updated at the same time, provide practical advice to content authors on how to handle character encodings in HTML and CSS.

Comments are being sought on the following new articles prior to final publication:

1. Handling character encodings in HTML and CSS
2. Essential definitions related to character encodings
3. Choosing & applying a character encoding
4. Character encoding declarations in HTML
5. The byte-order mark (BOM) in HTML
6. Normalization in HTML and CSS
7. Characters or markup?

These articles have been derived from the former tutorial, which has already undergone a review. Since then, HTML5 has been brought to the fore in the articles and various small changes have been added, including some short summary information.

The three updated articles are the result of merging the tutorial material with existing articles. They are:

• CSS character encoding declarations
• Using character escapes in markup and CSS
• Serving XHTML 1.0

The character encoding section of the techniques page relating to HTML and CSS authoring has also been overhauled, to include the new material.

Please send any comments to www-international@w3.org (subscribe). We hope to publish a final version in one to two weeks.
