Let me add two more workarounds, one uglier than the other:
:
- if the "odd text out" is a sufficiently large chunk that merits a page of
its own, you could link to it with the keyword TARGET="WINDOW" within the
anchor tag, forcing another browser window to open with the text. For
example:
<A  TARGET="WINDOW" HREF="myfile.html">Text to display</A>
Within that window, you could force Cyrillic (say) encoding with
<META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-5">

- or you could create lots of small gifs with all the glyphs you need and
substitute the letters in your text with references to these gifs.
Definitely nonstandard, and with the added disadvantage that pages take a
long time to load and are difficult to print out. You can see it in action
at the Bulgarian financial newspaper Pari (www.pari.bg).
