The source specifies encoding="iso-8859-1". Your browser should honor that. If you choose to ignore it, you are on your own. I have another problem: The ø is not shown at all in konqueror (encoding set to iso-8859-1). But I don't know why. Maybe the font does not have that character. > Is it good practice to embed an ø object? What do w3 say? You do not need to do that if you specify the encoding. Otherwise, you must only use 7 bit ASCII and use ø. Georg
