    If this is not well known already, the beta releases of Netscape2.0
offer support for automatic switching between the Latin-1 character set
as used in the majority of western European documents and the default,
and a handful of other encodings, including the ISO 8859-2 encoding which
would be used in pages written in Czech and Slovak.
 
    This is accomplished by the META tag which should be added to an HTML
document body as follows to give it a MIME charset tagging...
 
<META HTTP-EQUIV="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-2">
 
    When these new versions of Netscape encounter such a document, they
will attempt to display it with a Latin-2 font, provided one is available.
 
    A stupid example of this, which was primarily written to demonstrate
this ability of Netscape, can be found temporarily at:

    It is my hope that this charset tagging gets added to all pages which
are not exclusively in ASCII, to permit proper viewing of both pages in
western languages and those in Czech, Slovak, and all the other languages
supported by this tagging.
