The file apache2.conf specifies these default extensions for Hebrew charset ISO-8859-8: AddCharset ISO-8859-8 .iso8859-8 .heb .hebrew However, ISO-8859-8 is a charset designation for *left-to-right* Hebrew that was useful for text/plain messages with hard line wrapping but that has no use with text/html. The charset designation suitable for text/html, i.e. for use with *right-to-left* Hebrew, is charset=iso-8859-8-i Please see http://www.nirdagan.com/hebrew/standards.html for details and http://freenet-homepage.de/prilop/hebrew.iso.html for a test case. ISO-8859-8-i is also available in browsers like Firefox and Internet Explorer under the name "Logical Hebrew". Therefore, apache2.conf should include also a line AddCharset iso-8859-8-i ...... with some suitable extensions. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
