While we are on this topic can I add another query to see if any one
knows the answer.
There are some Russian sites which claim to be in 1251 but still
produce garbage on screen consisting of strings of accented vowels.
A good example and an easy site to access is the NTV international
site: http://www.ntv.ru/ntvint
the first page is in English and offers a choice of coding. If you
then click on WIN and then on the Programmy button you get the main
prograame schedule which reads in Russian perfectly but if you then
from there click on the heading Nashe kino this produce the
unreadable text described above. A number of sites are like this and
one site I tried started in Russian and changed to this form in the
middle of a piece of text...
Any ideas on this one??
I use win 3.1 and Netscape 3.0 but colleagues with win 95 have the
same problem.
