I am not able to properly display in IE 6.0 the czech characters. Do you know how to set up IE to correctly display these characters?

Do you know how to edit czech language html pages using Dream Waver?

Thank you!

Go to windowsupdate.com .. There you'll be able to download extended language support for IE6.

And, it shouldn't matter what language the pages are in. You should be able to edit them anyway. Or, have you encountered any specific problems?

Yes, I encountered a specific problem.

I had some pages in Word format. Importing that text in dream weaver, few characters changed in "garbage".

Analyzing some Czech sites I solved the problem: placing the right code
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="text/html; charset=windows-1250"> and converting some characters manually.

For example this word:

spole&#269;ného

To get the "&#269;" you can write in the editor "č".

P.S. Here I got the same problem: I can view the right character while editing, but after the post....garbage.
The letter was a letter "c" with a small "v" above.

.. but that's because Webmaster World is not using the same character set ..

Try this:


<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250">
<title>Czech Char Test</title>
</head>
<body>
This should be a lowercase c with a small "v" on top: &#269;
</body>
</html>

Works for me ..
