the user agents in question are various mobile phones, which as you might guess are premature technology and have their own ways with things. here is an example posting from a Samsung D600 which insists on posting form data in UTF-8 even though i serve it ISO-8859-1 and it claims to support all character sets. [_POST] => Array ( [message] => Norwegian characters: øá ) [_SERVER] => Array ( [HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET] => * [CONTENT_TYPE] => application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8 [HTTP_USER_AGENT] => SAMSUNG-SGH-D600E/1.0 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 UP.Browser/6.2.3.3.c.1.101 (GUI) MMP/2.0 ) i would consider switching to utf-8 if i knew how make the windows version of emacs work fine with utf-8 text files (and still work with iso-8859-1 files as well).
