Hebrew encoding?

The HTTP-EQUIV looks alright, but it's not interpreted by browsers, it's meant to be interpreted by the server. I'm not sure how much you know about that, so here comes the lengthy explanation: When the server sends a page to the browser, it sends a header before the actual document you can see by clicking 'view source' (or something like that) in your browser. This header determines the encoding of this document, and the HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" directive is meant to tell the server what encoding to choose.

However, when I fetch your page, the server says 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1' in the header, so I guess it just happily ignores your HTTP-EQUIV directive.

I recently posted comments closely related to this issue when another user asked how Antville could be translated to Chinese, but I'm still waiting for responses to my comments by someone who can answer the questions I raised there.

So all I can tell you now is: You're not doing anything wrong, but what you tried to do doesn't work with Antville (or Antville.org anyway). There seem to be a few people interested in alternate encodings (I'm planning to try making Japanese characters work when I have the time), so you should stick around and pester us to do something about it from time to time.

By the way, I can't read a single character of the Hebrew parts of your page, but the characters look okay to me (using Opera 6 here).
