Re: [docbook-apps]  

Hmm, I checked the byte sequence in the HTML and 
mine is the same, and it works for me in IE6.0.2900.2180.xpsp.060111-1528.  
When I look at View -> Encoding, the UTF-8 option is selected.  Do you 
see that?

Hi,

  
 

  
thank you for the tip 
  with the customization layer. I’ve 
   exactly followed the instructions on:

  
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/OutputEncoding.html

  
 

  
and I got a HTML-File in the 
  utf-8-encoding, like:

  
 

  
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" 
  content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

  
 

  
But my IE 6.0 
  displays only a little box-Symbol for the &thinsp;-Entity  
  :-(

  
 

  
The 
  command

  
 

  
$ less file.html 
  

  
 

  
shows für the 
  &thinsp;-Character

  
 

  
<E2><80><89>

  
 

  
What did I wrong or 
  is the IE 6.0 not able to display these character 
  properly.

  
 

  
Thank you very 
  much.

  
 

  
Robert

  &thinsp;

  
 

  

  
Actually, that character is 
  recognized by IE6 when you use an output encoding of "utf-8".  It just 
  isn't recognized in the default output encoding of "iso-8859-1".  
  

  

  
 

  

  
You need to use a stylesheet 
  customization layer that sets the output encoding to utf-8, as described 
  here:

Hi all,

    
 

    
I want to write a thin space betweeen two character. 
    For this I found the &thinsp;-Entity.

    
 

    
But if I write in my docbook-File something like 
    this

    
 

    
a&thinsp;b

    
 

    
in order to generate a HTML-File with the standard 
    html/docbook.xsl-File 

    
 

    
I get a html-File with

    
 

    
a&#8201;b

    
 

    
which is obviously a unknown character in the 
    Internet-Explorer 6 :-(

    
 

    
 

    
Any hints?

    
 

    
Best 
    wishes

    
 

    
Robert
