The output should be UTF8, and it should autodetect it. The output from
the *website* should *not* validate as gb2312, because it is no longer
in that encoding.

The reason that's the only error you get may be that it doesn't validate
the document because of encoding errors. So this doesn't prove (or
disprove for that matter) that the tags are fixed.

I'm sorry to say, but it's invalid characters in it again :-(
On svr2:
svr2# iconv -f gb2312 -t utf-8 FAQ_chinese.html >/dev/null
iconv: FAQ_chinese.html: cannot convert


On developer.pgadmin.org:
mha@developer:~/ext/faqs$ iconv -f gb2312 -t utf-8 FAQ_chinese.html  -o
/dev/null
iconv: illegal input sequence at position 8182


Could it be cvs that messes the encoding up? Can you mail me the file as
you see it before you commit and I can see if that makes a difference?
