Publish multilingual HTML documents on web in UTF-8 encoding

I want to publish a multilingual HTML document (encoded in UTF-8) on one of my Geocities.com account but due to HTML specifications, I’m unable to publish it. We (me and some of linux-delhi mailing list members) had a discussion on this bug, which is available from
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi/12845/focus=12845
. In short, the problem is that the Content-Type header specified through <meta> tag in HTML page is not given priority over server’s Content-Type header, which in case of Geocities.com and other HTTP/1.1 compliant webservers default to ISO-8859-1 encoding. So even if your document is encoded in UTF-8, fully tagged according to HTML standards, the compliant HTML web browser will decode it as ISO-8859-1 not UTF-8. This bug is still not resolved.

This Page Is Tentatively Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict

Hooray, Now this blog is Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict, though tentatively (coz, it doesn’t have proper DOCTYPE declaration) . But at last, I’m a bit :-) , though this page contains invalid CSS :-( .

Thanks WordPress !! Thanks Carthik !!

I’m back in blogging world after this, I found WordPress (actually recommended by carthik on #ubuntu-in @ irc.freenode.net ). Well my blog now officially confirms to XHTML v1.0 Transitional, I will soon move it to XHTML v1.0 Strict (unofficially).

And now I’ve imported all my posts and comments from my Blogger account.
