umlauts to my E-mail; otherwise I'd include them.)</i></p></blockquote>
<p>You should be able to do it by encoding them with HTML entities (as
<a href="../faq.html#links">explained in the FAQ</a> :). For example,
to get "Dëkuy", just type "D&euml;kuy" in your message. It'll
look a bit weird in the email, but once it's up on the web, your
browser should translate it for you so you simply see "Dëkuy".
Similarly for "Ad onlelán": "Ad onlel&aacute;n".</p>
<p>Basically, it's "&" + vowel + one of "acute", "uml", "circ",
"grave" + ";". Entities are case sensitive, so &Aacute; (Á)
is something different from &aacute; (á). See also the HTML
source code of this posting.</p>
<p>Cheers,<br>Philip.</p>
