Dear Peter,
Thanks very much for yor reply to my question. It was very informative,
but depressing, as it seems I will not be able to use IPA/Unicode on my
web sites.  I was hoping that if I used a full Unicode font such as
Arial, I could have English, Chinese and IPA on the site with only one
font.  A second option is any IPA font that has the same code-points for
MAC and PC, but there are none that I know of except the new SIL font
you mentioned (Is that part of the SIL Encore Fonts package?), and I'll
deal with Chinese in some other way.  Would that work?  I definitely
don't want to do what most people have done, which is to use graphics
for IPA. (I now have graphics, but it makes them "dead".)

Thanks very much for your help!

All the best,
Randy
