Charset issues

Today I have been working on the Hungarian webpages again. I had issues with ®, © and ™ signs a long ago, so I tried to find out what’s wrong with the charset. I tried iso-8859-1, iso-8859-2 and utf-8, but something was wrong in each case. Finally, I realized that tidy mess up the entities, so everything went ok under iso-8859-2 by disabling tidy.

    I think you should just go back to UTF-8, it is much more easier to insert special characters, especially outside of the rather limited ISO-8859-X range. Tidy does support UTF-8 and if you tell it not to mess with entities, characters should be fine.

    Cheers,
