If I fire up a fresh mozilla it goes to a blank page (my standard startup page). Mozilla shows the character encoding is indeed Western ISO 8859-1. However, when I view the ZMI, the encoding shifts to Unicode UTF-8. Experiments with other pages seem to indicate Mozilla is detecting the encoding correctly but it's difficult to be certain. If I had to guess, I'd say Zope is claiming to be UTF-8 but not handling user supplied data (properties) correctly. They just get spat out as-is, which in this case is ISO 8859. This makes sense since I don't think Zope has any way of knowing if the user properties are UTF or ISO 8859 or what. It turns out I can use &blah; style encoding in titles and that seems to be okay with Moz and IE6. The only problem is they display in the ZMI as &blah;. This is correct but annoying. Thanks for everyones help. Charlie

My problem is the ZMI doesn't seem to be setting an encoding. Mozilla 1.1 notices this and displays all 8 bit characters as '?'. So 'Re'sume`' now shows up as 'R?sum?'.
If that's the case, Mozilla is wrong as the default encoding for HTML is iso-8859-1.
