My test page was http://groups.yahoo.com/group/JRW_test/message/6 . It used
to display properly if I chose UTF-7 in Firefox. However, something has
changed and now I can no longer get the posted text to be intepreted as
UTF-7. It works fine as UTF-7 if I cut and paste the posting it into a text
file, but the UTF-7 trick no longer works on the post as accessed from Yahoo
groups.
