A Unicode problem

In the last entry, I wanted to generate an h with a dot underneath it. So I wrote "ḥ", which is this:

But it doesn't work in IE for the Mac, or in Chimera, my main browser. But it does work in OmniWeb, and IE/PC. Turns out that it's a bug in the Mozilla code. Oh well...

Actually avi, its not a unicod problem its your specification for the page. It should be UTF-8 if you want unicode. Yours is set to: iso-8859-1. just change the charset attribute to charset=utf-8.

I've learned a lot from using Moveable Type. The character set thing threw me for a loop for a while.

Actually, it's a font problem (!). See the later entry about that.

Yeah, I saw that. Odd, because I could have sworn I had a problem with some characters when my charset wasn't set right. Oh well. You and your crazy OTF's!
