Hi,
I've a pb with utf8 encoding with safari or firefox.
I retrieve the response of a XMLHttpRequest and depending if I use
safari or firefox I can't manage to get characters like "éàç"
to see an illustration you can try the code below :
(with this code I get a "é" with firefox but not with safari. I need to
add a ut8_decode to get the "é"!)
RQ : the files are encoded in utf8
thank you

I don't know if browsers obey HTTP headers under this situation, but it's
always good practice to make sure you have a correct Content-Type header.
If web server doesn't generate the correct one, do it yourself:
<?php
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
echo "é";
?>
.... given than you save the file as UTF-8 (all good editors allow you to
choose).

I still get "é" rather than "é" in my alert in safari... :(
even with
// action.php
<?php
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
echo "é";
?>

I'ld say that the output stream should be correct when it shows 'é';
I think it's rather the browser that doesn't know how to represent the
offered data. A route from 'é' to 'é' uses a UTF-8 code table for
sure; since it corresponds to hex C3 ('Ã') plus hex A9 ('©'),
together forming Unicode's "LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE" ('é' or
hex E9 in "traditiona l" sets).
More info, search for 'C3A9' on: http://home.tiscali.nl/t876506/utf8tbl.html
For the basic values, see table on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8859-1
Did you save action.php in UTF-8 mode ?
I'ld suggest to add meta-information in your page header as well:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

It appears that at least Google Groups doesn't show these chars as they
were intended (which indicates again how messy character encoding in
browsers can be).

How can you make a div visible and hidden in safari?

Also, can anyone tell me how to turn on javascript error commenting in
Safari? Right now, if javascript fails or errors, the browser just sits
there and doesn't return any error message.

Sorry if this seems a bit silly, I have no experience with this type of code.
Here is a fading script for an Image Gallery I am looking to fix. It works with IE and Safari but not with Firefox and Netscape. Actually, when I say it doesn't work, I mean you have to refresh the page before the fade happens and once that is done once, it works on that image. for that session.
Here is the code:
