Hi,

Well worth reading, for the CSS features that should work
(but actually don't) in common browsers.  

From the W3C I18N Globalization, Education, and Outreach
group.

Cheers,
- Ira

Subject: New Article: Serving XHTML 1.0

The GEO task force has published a new article:

	Serving XHTML 1.0

At: http://www.w3.org/International/articles/serving-xhtml/

This very briefly describes some, often surprising, aspects of how servers
send XHTML to the user agent (eg. a browser), and how common user agents
handle the markup they receive. This article provides background information
that helps explain why some aspects of CSS styling don't work the way you
expect, but also sets the scene for the approach you should use for
declaring encodings.

You can find links to internationalization specifications, FAQs, articles,
tools, tests, and soon tutorials at
http://www.w3.org/International/articles.html
