[FX.php List] Ongoing saga with Japanese text encoding

[Bob Patin]

Stephen,

Thanks for your reply; so all the .htaccess file would contain is the  
line below?

I use Mac OS X Server, which insulates me from the innards of Apache  
(which also means I haven't learned the innards too...). Would I put  
this in the root directory for this site?

If I do this, then can I use UTF-8 on their pages and they'll be able  
to see things properly?

Thanks,

Bob Patin
